I thought it was only Ryanair who referred to Charleroi as Brussels South - much the same as they once referred to Malmoe (Sweden) as Copenhagen (Denmark) East :ooh:

According to Spiegel Online, though it was indicated, there was no apparent fire. Pilots turned off one engine as a precaution, three injured during evacuation.

3 injured? Did they do an emergency evacuation after the landing?
Why? Did they still have a fire warning after the touchdown?
Does anybody have more info?
