It's a very good insight and which seems not to have been considered in
the inquiry. Additionally I think the winds aloft at the altitude of the
fires would have carried plenty of oxygen to fan the flames fiercely.
Another aspect to consider is the effect of the added mass of the plane.
Could this have caused the floor joist connections to break sooner too?
