Mobile catches fire on Plane

An Apple iPhone apparently caught fire during a flight and had to be extinguished by the crew.  

A small Australian Airline, Regional Airways, reported that the phone started smoking and glowed red shortly after the plane landed in Sydney on Friday. Fast thinking flight attendants extinguished the phone using water.

No cause for Alarm!

"We have no previous records of iPhones undergoing spontaneous self-ignition," a spokesman for the Australian Transport and Safety Bureau (ATSB) told AFP news agency.

Apple will be working with investigators to determine the cause. CM
