DHL cargo jet erupts in flames during landing at LAX

A DHL cargo plane caught fire while landing at Los Angeles International Airport late Wednesday night. Video footage shows flames erupting from beneath the aircraft as it rolled down the runway after 11 p.m. The incident involved several loud pops, which are believed to be tire failures. Reports indicate the rear tires burst into flames during the emergency landing, with some observations suggesting the brakes may have locked up as the aircraft made contact with the ground.
