Rick,

Good video.

A smoke filled cockpit will get your attention faster than just about anything else (other than an engine failure at V1). He did a good job of heading for Reagan and coordinating with the fire-fighters.

I had a C-130 cockpit fill with smoke at cruise altitude, over Denver one day. You lose track of time, but I think we were on the ground in about 7 minutes. We did have a fire, but it contained itself in a 2'x 2'x 2' electronic box. Burned to a crisp inside.

Phil Woj.
