touched down OK and something went wrong - LH gear collapsed
LH engine damaged caught fire - a/c left runway
soon after stopping LH wing large fuel tank explosion
crew left cockpit OK via escape ropes

landing weather says maybe a cross wind? with Gust 20>25kts (what is the c/w max for DC10?)

landing runway 10L
