We had the same thing happen a few years ago with a FedEx DC-10 that took off from KIND and then suffered an engine failure. They flew various circuits at 4000 ft for 45 minutes while dumping fuel. One of the legs took them directly overhead our house. A few minutes after the aircraft passed, the odor of jet fuel (kerosene) became noticeable. Nothing too bad, but it reminded me of the trucks that periodically drive through our neighborhood pumping out clouds of kerosene to keep the mosquito population in check. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to run inside to grab the camera when I saw it was headed directly toward us.
