Easy for you to say after the fact! If you look at the video, it would be impossible to do as you say, due to the fact that there were two cabinet doors that flew open and anyone getting near would get struck by either one! Also, the cart was not making concentric circles which made approaching it very dangerous. I understand your logic, but not applicable here. You'd have to be one cool dude to casually try and do what you described.

...like not replacing your oil filler cap or tightening the drain plug when changing your oil! I think EVERYTHING is important when it's main operation is in the air, off the ground!

Smitty- well said. Yes, it was just another chance for the media to show their stupidity! Can't stand watching the "news" anymore. Everything is glorified and exaggerated to attract viewers. Very sad.

I'm done here. Can't have an intelligent conversation/debate with people who insist on slanting the topic to suit their own personal agendas. Now there's someone throwing out "what -if's". Here's one-"What if" no plane crashes? You can make up "what if" scenarios forever. As a retired firefighter and aviation buff, I can truly appreciate the enormous fire suppression impact carried out by the 747 Supertanker, regardless of where its operating.

If I want a geography lesson, I'll check out a National Geographic web site....this is an AVIATION site!!!

The point of the article is about how great the 747 Supertanker is and how great a firefighting tool it is.. You can dissect the area it's currently being used in, but like I said, "WHO CARES WHERE ITS BEING USED"? If you want to carry on a diatribe about what country, region, latitude, longitude, temperature, population, etc, go ahead but you've not had any comments on the topic...THE 747 Supertanker!
