Serious amount of ignorance in this thread.

Let me settle this argument once and for all.
1. Large airliners dump fuel to reduce their weight in an emergency landing. This is because when fully loaded with fuel, they are too heavy to land safely.
2. Jet fuel can and most times will explode during a plane crash. This fact is well documented and cannot be argued against.

Just to illustrate, I fly the A330. On the -302 series (an extra tank) our takeoff weight can be almost 120,000 pounds over our certified max landing weight.
This flight was a 777 going to Shanghai, about a 14 hr flight.

What do you suppose caused this jet to explode on impact? Keep in mind this crash took place moments after impact when the jet’s fuel tank are full.
Darth, I like you, but you're not understanding what flammable means, bud.

What if you rip a fuel tank open and atomize the jet fuel while skidding down the runway with a failed landing gear creating sparks?
KABOOM!!!!!

I’m a pilot
I once siphoned jet fuel out of my airplane into my zippo so I could light a cigarette
Didn’t work.
Jet fuel isn’t flammable.
The end
That's a bullshite tale.
Exactly what type of aircraft was this?

You have no clue how fuel works.
Throw a match in liquid fuel and it goes out.
The vapor us what ignites.

I have seen a few people say this.
Trust me, not a good idea when it comes to kerosene.

How exactly did you submit over 200 posts in 4 days? You are an insecure hypomanic woman, a shitty alter, or both.

Oh, look at the big man attacking someone from behind a keyboard.
Do you know why you do that? Because you're a wormy punk bitch in real life.
No way you would be that nasty face to face. STFU, you gay arse punk. Have your Mom fix you another hot pocket.
