PAX boy. Rapid fire is most likely and (my theory) extinguished just as rapidly.
Singapore is RFF 10
Any " fire fighters" input on the time required to extinguish a fire like this?

When the fire department practice fire drills at the airport on the fire trainer fuselage it seems a minute passes only before extinguishing the practice fire assuming zero additional fuel sources. Ie tank ruptured.

What if the fire was reported (from fire tender one) "under control" within a minute? My guess and speculation .
A Shorter time than completing the evacuation checklist.
What then?
