You can still see the big divot the L1011's wing made when it hit the water tank which sprayed jet fuel everywhere and then ignited. Why don't they move the water tank to a SAFER location (well outside of the landing zone)?
I was at what is known as solana when it crashed and heard it. I didn't even see any footage on the news about houses being damaged last nite
