This has always bugged me...

Just saw the movie on TV today for about the 100th time and this glitch has always driven me crazy. When the terrorists crash the plane by resetting seal level -200ft., what causes the raging explosion followed by the raging inferno??? The pilot (Chief O'Brien, haha) just remarked not 5 minutes earlier that the plane was flying on petrol fumes. If the tanks were so empty, what fuels the blaze that ensues when the plane crashes?!?! I know, it's an action flick, but that's pretty ridiculous even for a DH movie!
