Minutes after takeoff from Dubai, the pilots of a UPS Boeing 747 are face to face with their worst nightmare. Behind them, a cargo pallet containing over 81,000 lithium batteries has caught fire. Smoke rapidly fills the cockpit, and the pilots desperately race back to the airport. With every passing second, the fire spreads and intensifies. And just when it seemed like things couldn’t get any worse, the captain’s oxygen supply fails. Will they be able to make it back to the airport before their massive plane is consumed by flames? This is the story or UPS flight 6.
