It’s hard to overstate how important of a moment this is in modern aircraft design. Almost 400 people aboard that A350 and all got out safely after sustaining heavy damage. A lot of analyses and small scale tests on carbon fiber just got a massive trove of new data.
@jonostrower Does JAL give free seats to people that are so large they take up two?
@jonostrower But probably a write off for the aircraft 🥺

@jonostrower People almost dying a horrible burning death. This guy: this is an important moment for modern aircraft design🤓
@jonostrower Strange that the fire is inside the fuselage, yet the wings aren't on fire. If a collision started the fire, you would expect fuel from the wings to start the fire, but burn the outer skin first.
@jonostrower We think of that as soon we got this images and compared with the Asiana 777 @ SFO
@jonostrower 🎯 And kudos to the crew for bringing a flaming 130knot projectile to a controlled, safe stop and evacuating everyone in terrifying circumstances. A few decades ago, all would have likely perished
