I saw this happen live today and shot a picture of it on my cell phone. I was in a car and we happened to be driving right past it as it was about at its peak. I thought they were going to lose control of it, because at that time there were flames shooting out and there weren't yet any signs of the fire being fought. By the time I got to the airport, they had it largely under control and were battling the flames from the roof. Pretty good job by those firefighters - I thought she may be going down.
