The plane was carrying a pallet of lithium batteries, the kind that have been known to outgas, overheat, catch fire and explode in certain situations. They were in the forward cargo hold, very close to the main power bus and forward electronics bay where the “brains” of the aircraft were located.
But the real problem was Islam or Boeing.......
Burning cargo batteries brought down a US passenger plane a couple decades ago.
None of which were met in this flight.
