Just taking the taxi home from CNX going down hang dong rd and there was a huge fireball and black smoke coming from the runway.  Couldn't see if a plane was burning, but there was some sort of av gas or jet fuel burning with big flames.

 

Did a plane crash?

Odd time of day for there to be a fire-fighting drill.  Have landings and take-offs stopped?  I think I'm hearing one taking off right now.  Wouldn't that be a sign that everything is OK?  They only have one run-way at CNX.

Yeah, but they don't come with balls of fire and black smoke like the OP saw.  That sounds more like something Bezos or Musk would dream up, not Zuckerberg.

 

I was hoping they'd come up with scratch and sniff websites first, but virtual fireballs are impressive.  Hard to monetize, though.

IIRC there's a mock-up steel-plane, for the fire-teams to practice on, up at that end of the airport (South of the Cargo area) ?

 

Perhaps someone was a bit generous, with the petrol/deisel/oil to fire it up, using up their budget before year-end ?
