Lets put this is perspective: When sully ditched into the Hudson, no body questioned if the 'ditching-switch was on .obviously off as the rear slides were unusable and if 50 folks had drowned not being able to get out... they would be blaming you know who... but the outcome was favorable.
so aircraft on fire... no evacuation... everybody got out safe... like the Hudson... outcome is favorable... they didn't poke holes at the miracle on the Hudson... do we need it here?????
fact: fire engines were on standby and were by the a/c side the moment the a/c came to a stop. fire chief told the a/c captain not to evacuate , fire chief said this twice. Fire chief said the fire is under control and there is fuel spillage on the tarmac making an emergency evacuation unsafe.
so experience but sub standard SQ captain didn't evacuate despite raging fire on wing..... should have not listen to fire chief but listen to you arm chair captains.....then maybe ... just maybe everybody might walk out of this alive.....oh hang on... that happened.
