Great action from the crews, yes, but let's not forget the LAS ARFF and Airport Operations who also played a critical part in all this.
Yes, but I think these are two separate things.
The fire service did a very good and prompt job, but it was ultimately the a/c crew that saved loss of life through the good decision to get everyone off when they did. Much more of a delay in that decision could have been disastrous through a smoke filled fuselage, regardless of whether fire crews were present.
Hats off to all!!!
