Well, this is a first for me. A Press Release from a flight company, Regional Express, talking about a self combustion phone after the flight landed. The phone in question is an iPhone 4. Not much details on what happen though.<\/p>\n

It seems that the iPhone 4 started to emit dense smoke with a “red glow” after the flight ZL319 operating from Lismore to Sydney landed. The flight attendants managed to extinguish the “red glow”. Here is the full press release (copied from Engadget<\/a>).<\/p>\n

MEDIA RELEASE<\/p>\n

MOBILE PHONE SELF COMBUSTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regional Express (Rex) flight ZL319 operating from Lismore to Sydney today had an occurrence after landing, when a passenger’s mobile phone started emitting a significant amount of dense smoke, accompanied by a red glow.<\/p>\n

In accordance with company standard safety procedures, the Flight Attendant carried out recovery actions immediately and the red glow was extinguished successfully.<\/p>\n

All passengers and crew on board were unharmed.<\/p>\n

The matter has been reported to the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) as well as the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) for investigation and directions.<\/p>\n
