Er . . . no, that won't buff out!
You've probably read about the crash of a Boeing 747-200 freighter aircraft at Brussels airport today. Fortunately, no-one was hurt, but the aircraft (fully loaded with fuel) broke in half and skidded to a halt just yards short of a railway line, and a few hundred yards from a group of houses.
The pictures of the crash site are very sobering. It's not yet known what caused the crash, but I reckon the crew need to be giving thanks to the Man Upstairs that the fuel didn't catch fire!
