It seems that the aircraft collided with a coast guard aircraft on the runway which set the commercial jet on fire. Furthermore, it is unclear if the 379 passengers and crew are injured from the accident. Many are sharing their sympathies to the passengers and crew of the flight.
The aircraft is relatively new, and is a flagship of most airlines in the world from Singapore Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Qatar Airways and so on. Aviation enthusiasts are sad at the fact that this is the first hull loss of the A350.
