Hmm, must be a technical problem, because the aircraft had a history of technical errors, but heard there were explosions on the aircraft.

Well, it's not likely to be pilot error, I guess.

In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose.
