I'm sure most of us saw the absolutely insane footage of a British Airways 777-200 on fire at Las Vegas McCarran Airport earlier in the week. The plane was carrying 170 passengers,and thanks to the grand work of the crew, everyone was evacuated reasonably safely.
While I'm sure we'll soon find out more about what happened, and perhaps the craziest allotment of the myth was that it was the 63 year venerable (respected because of age, distinguished) captain's moment to last trip before retirement,and the first time he encountered a life threatening emergency in his 42 year flying career. And I guess this put him into retirement early, since he says he's done flying after that incident.
The footage is dramatic, or particularly since you can see the slides deployed and cabin being evacuated while the plane is still on fire.
