11 Very unfortunate example of how much fuel these long haul flights carry, and how flammable it is.

Saw somewhere that one possibility is an engine fell off during take off; whether that is the cause or result of failure, don't know. Also, pilots out there, what is emergency procedure at that point of the takeoff, try to get airborne and circle around?
