The B-720 is seen moments after impact and just before hitting the wing openers. The demonstration underlined an often-overlooked aspect of aeronautical research. Although the small-scale ground tests had indicated that the anti-misting additive would be effective in reducing post-crash fires, the full-scale demonstration in a real-world flight environment showed that the modified anti-misting fuel was ineffective in reducing the propagation or intensity of fire.Dec 1984NASA Photo› CID Project Description
