VIR44B fire indication at KLAS 2016-08-06
« on: August 08, 2016, 09:55:19 PM »
The Virgin Atlantic B744 received an indication of a fire in the wheel well upon departing Las Vegas. They performed a low approach with Tower observing nothing abnormal with the aircraft. They dumped fuel over Boulder City and returned to Las Vegas at their maximum landing weight. Unfortunately the discrete frequency used during the landing and ground inspection was not covered by the feeds, so we've got audio basically up until they commenced their final approach.
