Part 9/11:
As the Airbus A380 came to a rest just 150 meters from the edge, a new danger emerged—ongoing fuel leaks and a functioning engine amidst substantial heat from the brakes posed risks of an explosion. The crew was left to make quick critical decisions about how to prioritize passenger safety at such a dangerous juncture.
Safe Evacuation and Beyond
After a carefully orchestrated evacuation plan that saw passengers disembark securely, emergency services were on standby as the residual engines continued to present risks long after the aircraft had settled on the ground. Impressively, not a single passenger or crew member was harmed throughout the incident—a testament to the incredible professionalism of the flight crew.
