> Does anyone know why the fire truck was driving across the runway in the first place?
replyYes we know. There was an other airplane who declared an emergency and was about to evacuate the passengers on the tarmac. The other plane in question had two aborted takeoffs, and then they smelled some “odour” in the aft of the plane which made some of the crew feel ill.
I believe it was responding to the other active incident that the ATC was also handling where a plane failed to take off?
replyWas the 2nd plane on a runway still also?
replyit was on a taxiway. The fire truck had to cross the runway to get to it.
replyThanks for the info, I wasnt sure if the fire truck crossing the runway was normal operation.
