Panicked passengers were forced to flee the burning wreckage of a Boeing 737 when it skidded off the runway in Senegal early Thursday, video showed.
Eleven people were injured – four of them severely – when the Air Senegal flight headed from Bamako, Mali, crashed mid-lift off from Dakar’s Blaise Diagne airport shortly after 1 a.m. local time, the BBC reported.
One of the 78 passengers was seen scrambling away from the Boeing 737-300 aircraft as it went up in flames, one clip from the scene showed.
The plane – which Air Senegal chartered from the Senegalese carrier Transair – was seen with a large hole in the left engine as first responders extinguished the blaze.

Was it yesterday that a FedEx Boeing’s front landing gear didn’t deploy?

The plane – which Air Senegal chartered from the Senegalese carrier Transair... It *identified* as a plane. Was that wrong?

Clearly the flight crew was not diverse enough.

Fired the aerospace engineers running the company and replaced them with MBAs.

I wonder if maybe Air Senegal is skimping the maintenance. Do they do DEI hiring there too?

Oh, it’s a big pretty white plane with red stripes, curtains in the windows and wheels and it looks like a big Tylenol.
