This is one of the 777s that regularly services Canberra.

Seemed to take the firefighters a VERY long time to put that out!

Only two guys with a water hose?
 
Two firefighters with a single water hose seemed quite inadequate. Surely a dump of foam would have snuffed that tug fire out very quickly? :confused:
