Let me guess, they didn't have a fire extinguisher to fight the fire.

My thoughts exactly. This is a 2 week old video but the link of FFcloseclass.com said it was a spare or out of service or something to that degree. I learned always keep the extinguishers on the rig at least even when its OOS because you never know when the engine will over heat and you need to use a case of water to cool the engine of $350,000 piece of apparatus on the side of 684.

Pretty sad to lose an entire engine because someone took the extinguishers off the rig.

Rember the conversations last week of when to close a roadway?

Think this qualifies.
