board officials concluded an electrical failure ignited fuel vapors in a nearly empty tank in the belly of the jet.
Wait WHAT???? It just took off and was going to make a cross Atlantic flight. I don't remember what they ruled but if this is it, that's just retarded.....level 10 retarded.

A flight to Europe isn't a big deal. From New York London is six hours away, and Italy another 90ish minutes. Every 777 I've taken from Houston to Europe was for sure not full of gas, the flight is 20-30% shorter than a flight to Japan, it wouldn't make sense to carry the same amount of gas.
