Moscow's Vnukovo Airport was temporarily closed on Saturday morning after a UTair 737 carrying about 140 people from the southern Russian city of Stavropol caught fire.
All tires of the landing gear's left leg collapsed and burst into flames.

Guess we'll be seeing this video for the next decade or so in all sort of CRM and safety refresher courses as a nice illustration of how NOT to do an evacution...
BTW, what are those 20 pax doing just standing on the wing, towards the wing tip?
They didn't think they had landed on the Hudson, did they?
