I guess it is not bad, just watching it on the video sitting for what seems like an age, by contrast a BMI ERJ done an emergency landing at MAN today, full emergency response, and the fire wagons were at it before it had even come to a halt (non event in the end,thankfully) Not having a pop at the emergency guys at BHX,all these guys everywhere do an awesome job, just an observation.:)

Maybe they did not follow as there was large amounts of sparks coming from the engine/wing area when it was in contact with the tarmac? I doubt they would wish a fire engine to be set on fire should these sparks ignite something from a chasing tender…
