Olivier Dubos told CNN there was no advance warning of a problem before the plane burst into flames.
The crew appeared as surprised as any of the passengers, he said.
“We were really scared, actually, when we started to roll in the ravine,” Dubos said. “We could see some flames, and that was where we got really scared. We couldn’t do anything. We were sitting in our seats. We didn’t know if the plane would just blow up.”
He said the flight attendants responded “very efficiently” and pushed people to hit the slides “as fast as possible.”
“A minute before touching ground, there was no more lights in the plane,” he added. “The lights were totally cut off.”
