Really?!

I was impressed that the fire-fighters followed long established rules of fire survival...they did not skirt the fire track and head to plane...they extinguished it all along the track to the plane and in so doing drifted their spray all along the way and into the plane fire assuring it did not restart behind them and run in once again.
Well done all around. A frightening scenario handled by a bundle of cool folks.
