that tail screams "MERICA, F-YEAH!" Don't like the tail, bring back the AA logo on it and you have yourself a beautiful new scheme.

I believe aircraft was at Top of descent when pilots allegedly got warnings regarding high temperatures in the battery compartment. Passengers state the descent was so fast and steep that cups and other items started rolling forward in the cabin.

 

Upon landing, the crew were advised of visible smoke at the front of the aircratft. By then, the crew could smeel burning so decided to evacuate.

WOW! that's way worse than I thought! YIKES!

This just in! VATSIM has grounded all 787 flights!!

j/k...

joking aside, it looks like (from the video up there) that the fire might have broken out during initial take-off. The aircraft is pulled onto a side taxiway next to the runway. It could be the engine generators overloading the battery relay causing the batteries to burn....

any chance we will get pictures?

looks like a shader or effect is screwing up. Best bet is to re-install FSX and your addons ending with the NGX as your last installed add-on...

batteries bursting in flames, cracked windshields, engine troubles, it's going to take a LOT of work to get the 787 off the ground again. Maybe, eventually we will see them fly again but until they have a better track-record I know no airliners here in the states will be getting them.
