FedEx 777 diverts over Pacific due to in-flight cargo fire.

Could it have been excess heat generated in a shipment of rice? Who is shipping rice on Fed Ex, anyhow?

The Video shows a container removed from the aircraft and soaked in water. So something was clearly wrong. Good call by the Pilots.

Sorry don't read whatever language your link took me too.

Did anybody else think "Castaway" after reading the headline? Glad everyone aboard is safe!

Thank God they were alright and able to land safely. Also thankful for in flight fire suppression systems. I'm pretty sure FedEx has them on the 777 which is a necessity with all the lithium ion batteries we are moving as cargo these days.
