Surveillance video from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) shows the moment a mechanical malfunction sparked a fire on Delta Flight 604 after it touched down from Cancun, Mexico, on May 6, 2024.
The plane was an Airbus A321neo that was less than 2 years old, according to Delta Spokesperson Morgan Durrant. There were 189 passengers, two pilots, and four flight attendants on board at the time.
Video shows the chutes deploying and passengers evacuating to the ramp. While a few passengers were able to exit via the jet bridge, the majority went down the slides.
The fire near the nose of the Airbus jet was caused by a mechanical malfunction. A SEA spokesperson said a short in an electric cord caused the fire and had since been repaired.
Officials say despite no visible fire when the Port of Seattle Fire Department arrived, firefighters sprayed water on the area anyway.

I was a line mechanic for an. airline for fifteen years. There then was a 50 lb. CO2 on wheels near every single gate, and most of the people on the ramp knew how to use them. The totally unacceptable response we see here is another example of how cost-cutting and dumbing down employees for cheaper wages has compromised your safety when you fly.

Had the same thought. They didn't shut off aircraft power, nobody ran to the CO2 or HALON extinguisher, the idiots on the right-hand wing didn't make an immediate egress down the slide, people taking their bags down the slides, scattered around everywhere.

I came here to say the same thing as an ex EAL mechanic, in the business for 41 years. Even if we were just running engines at the blast fence, there were always 2 very large fire extinguishers on large wagon-type wheels. One on the left side, one on the right.

@@LucasRocha-xj6tm In an evac you're supposed to leave all your belongings behind. This smooths actually getting off the plane and would prevent pileups and trips over bulky belongings dropped or snagged in the aisles. Once off the slides all the people should be directed away to safety. The video showed them milling around like browns cows.

Former Firefighter here. The response time was completely unacceptable. I imagine this video will be used in future trainings as an example of what not to do. That was at least a 4 minute response time with an on site station that I assume was no more than a half mile away. In my department, if you took longer than 120 seconds from a dead sleep to get ready for a call, you were left behind to staff for other calls.

@@DRpokeme the plane was stopped for 4 min 30 sec before the first slide deployed. It was 5 minutes when the first door opened. Feels like nearly all the passengers were already holding their hand luggage by the time the crew called for evacuation. What were they supposed to do? Tell the passengers to take another 5 minutes to cram all the hand luggage back onto the overhead bins before you can leave the plane? Toss the bags onto the heads of passengers standing at their seats because the narrow corridor was too narrow for everybody to stand in simultaneously? Leave your bags in the corridor and block the path of subsequent passengers? Seems that the problem here was the decision to evacuate, the fire was noticed, far too late, and passengers already grabbed their luggage intending to exit using the air bridge.

As someone who works this type of thing every day - everything was handled badly except for the Flight Crew's decision to pull the slides, which was the right thing to do. However, the ground crew being useless as to not have an extinguisher on the flames in a matter of seconds and the passengers fleeing all over an ACTIVE ramp without crowd control is egregious. All of this is prime video for training on what NOT to do. Training at US airports for incidents like these is slim to none - thus the response you see here...

Fire extinguisher would probably not help in this case. Yes, it can extinguish a fire, but you can see sparks continuing so nothing would prevent it from just reigniting. Emergency power off might help, but if the lines are already damaged just killing the ground power feed might not be enough and killing all electricity (and as such most lights) with passengers on board might cause more harm due to them panicking than just letting the fire/sparks continue for a few minutes.

Per my brother, an old-timer who worked for Northwest and then Delta at SeaTac: "We're trained yearly on fire extinguisher use... but we are not required to use them. Had it been me and old NW people, we would have been running for the cart. I've used one once on a fire in an engine tail cone and once on a cleaner's hilift truck that had an engine fire while up to an aircraft. The tail cone fire was maybe a few years ago and I was working cargo. Saw the fire, nobody on gate was doing anything, so I stopped and grabbed the cart and sprayed. The people they hire now would just run. I hadn't seen the whole thing. That was REALLY bad. They've turned it from a career job into a burger flipping job. That's what they get. That NEVER would have happened at SEA with NWA. Fucking incredible."

As a former cabin crew member, nothing pisses me off more than smug passengers who insist on seating in emergency exits and don't bother to listen to my briefing on how to open the doors and follow the red arrows down to the slides! They never listen and never look at the safety cards either. The first passengers off the overwing exits are prime examples! They were going to walk all the way to the wing tip? WTF? It would have been tragic if one stepped on the NO STEP sections of the wing and fallen off! Don't even get me started on idiots taking their bags impeding others to escape safely down the slides I had an emergency evacuation years ago in Tokyo and I actually grabbed two roller boards off American passengers and threw them in the galley. I had to help them slide down the slide too.

The inaction of the staff in the vicinity has been widely commented on, but what happened? Why did the fire start after the aircraft had come to a standstill? Can we see an employee coming just before the point where the fire started? Can someone explain this to me? I don't work in the aeronautical sector...

Where are the fire extinguishers? They should be standard equipment on all service vehicles. The fire would have been extinguished before emergency vehicles arrived.

There is no universal fire extinguisher. The appropriate type of fire extinguisher needs to be used depending on the type of fire. It looks to me that this particular fire might be from some battery/electrical device. Using the wrong type of extinguisher can make things worse.

@@xavieryates9782 Fire was caused by arcing ground power cable. Piolets hit the kill switch on their end but that only works if the plane is the problem. Another kill switch is down the line for the ground power cable. The ground crew made no attempt to even hit it. There is the correct extinguisher is by the wheels on the jet bridge. The ground crew was just stupid and not trained.

I worked the ramp for quite a bit of time in the 1990's. I cannot believe they did not grab an extinguisher. One time we had a catering truck have an engine fire while pulled up to the Fwd galley. In under a minute we hooked up a tow bar and pushed the plane back since the truck couldn't move. Another ramper started extinguishing the trucks engine, wow those folks in the video seemed to be unsure what to do.

From an evacuation perspective, that's the absolute worst time for it. Everybody's piled in the aisle, everybody's already got their hand luggage with them blocking the aisle, waiting to go out the front. Getting everybody to first understand the situation and then getting them pointed back towards the other end would create so much chaos and confusion...

You're telling me that not one of the vehicles that was sitting there didn't have a fire extinguisher or 4 on it ?? and not 1 of them decided to make an attempt at putting the fire out with 1 of the 12 fire extinguishers within 20 feet of the plane ? Even the ambulance drove away. Such cowards!!! Every one of those vehicles has one or multiple fire extinguishers on them.

Once upon a time a ground crew would know where the electrical shutoff button was for the ground power, then it would’ve been no problem to put out the fire with the attending CO2 fire extinguisher and after a short time the GP connector could be removed. Nowadays it seems you just run around like headless chickens waiting for someone else to do something?
