While NTSB investigators look closely into the actions of the flight crew for potential causes behind the July 6 Asiana Airlines Boeing 777-200ER accident, safety experts working on the other side of the cockpit door are already learning valuable new design lessons for crash survivability.
An Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 787 was severely damaged by fire at London Heathrow Airport on Friday, although the fire does not appear to be connected with the lithium-ion battery problems which grounded all 787s earlier this year. The fire, understood to have broken out shortly before 5 p.m., occurred while the aircraft was parked on a remote stand in the western part of the airport prior to the scheduled 9 p.m. departure of the airline’s flight ET701 to Addis Ababa Bole International Airport.
