Burning plane forced to land
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) is investigating the cause of a fire that forced a cargo plane to make an emergency landing at Tamworth airport in northern New South Wales earlier tonight.
Fire crews, police and ambulance officers were called to the scene, but the fire had been extinguished by the time the plane landed.
The two pilots and one crew member were treated for smoke inhalation and taken to hospital for observation.

It was a CV580.
There was no in flight fire.
There was no fire on the ground.
The source of the smoke could not be determined by flight crew or local fire crews.
While not a direct quote that's the general statement from what I read on BOSS. Those in the know will know boss.
