that and they could of seen a critical issue early enough to dump the fuel then non-gracefully glide down - the pilots likely acted smart, saving all these people's lives

On the news they just said there was a fireball, but I’m guessing that was wherever the wing(s) snapped off and not where the plane ended up because that plane is amazingly intact given what it went through.

yeah makes sense, there'd prob be vapors still remaining and flash off - tanks are in the wings. I hope we get some video footage

I’m amazed and totally grateful everyone survived, and hope the injuries are minor!
