Haha, I find that pretty funny.
Airport fire departments need to spend more time training for the unique realities of planes on the ground instead of the usual fire service practice of hanging around the fire house growing moustaches and cooking bad chili.
It's not like this was a 380 which takes up a lot more runway. The wingspan of a 787 is pretty close to a 747, which have been around for years. I haven't read about any airports damaging a 747 lately with a water salute. I'm in favor of all the firetruck operators taking a depth perception test.
