Goa Airport in India was shut down on Saturday as firefighters tackled a blaze which started after an Indian Navy MiG-29K fighter jet dropped its fuel tank while taking off.
周六，印度果阿机场被关闭，原因是印度海军一架米格- 29k战斗机在起飞时油箱脱落，导致跑道起火，消防员们赶往现场扑灭大火。
A portion of the runway caught fire during the incident which took place at around 2pm local time.
事故发生在当地时间下午2点左右，跑道的部分路段起火。
According to a spokesperson for the airport, which is used for both civilian and military aircraft, Indian Navy personnel were quickly dispatched to the scene, “cleaning the fuel from the runway and carrying out repair along the stretch.”
事发的果阿机场为军民合用机场，据该机场的一名发言人称，印度海军已迅速派遣人员前往现场，“清理跑道上的燃料，并沿着跑道进行修复工作。”
“These are external fuel tanks outfitted to aircraft in order to enable them to cover more distance. One such tank attached to a MiG-29K got jettisoned off the jet during a sortie and landed on the runway,” the spokesperson stated.
这位发言人还指出：“这些是外部燃料箱，安装在飞机上是为了延长飞行距离。米格- 29k上的其中一个外部燃料箱在一次起飞过程中从飞机上脱落，掉在了跑道上。”
The Navy published photos of the black fumes rising from the blaze on the runway. A spokesperson added that flights have now resumed.
印度海军公布了几张跑道上浓烟滚滚的照片。一位发言人还补充称，航班现已恢复。
