A large fire erupted at an American Airlines maintenance facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma, engulfing a building and causing significant damage. The fire broke out on Monday evening and prompted a large response from the Tulsa Fire Department. Multiple fire crews battled the blaze for several hours, working to contain the flames and prevent them from spreading to nearby structures. The affected facility is used for aircraft maintenance and repair, and the fire reportedly started in the roof area. Initial reports suggested that no injuries were reported as a result of the fire. However, the full extent of the damage and the cause of the fire remain under investigation. Images from the scene showed thick plumes of black smoke billowing into the sky, and the structure itself appeared to be heavily damaged. American Airlines confirmed the fire at its Tulsa maintenance base and stated they were working closely with the Tulsa Fire Department to address the situation. The airline also assured that they were assessing the impact on their operations and would take necessary measures to mitigate any disruptions. The cause of the fire is currently unknown, and investigators will be working to determine the origin and contributing factors. The incident is expected to have a temporary impact on American Airlines' maintenance schedule, though the long-term effects are still being evaluated. find the original article here: https://www.yahoo.com/news/photos-american-airlines-fire-show-161949038.html
