Air Accidents Investigation Branch recommendations say the UK Civil Aviation Authority should modify its guidance to air traffic controllers to require them to advise flightcrews of the surface wind whenever they tell the crew of an aircraft on the ground that it is showing signs of fire; require fire officers to advise the flightdeck crew of the need to evacuate the aircraft, and provide advice on the best exits to use; and "encourage" airports to deploy video equipment "to preserve best evidence in the event of an accident or incident". In addition, the Irish Aviation Authority and the European Joint Aviation Authorities should review initial and refresher training requirements for cabin crews.
