i have a couple of theories, bird ingestion causing dual engine failure, or a major uncontained engine failure that threw parts into the second, i seem to remember a f-14 having that same sort of problem. one report said that the pilots dumped fuel before bailing out, minimizing the fuel fire when it crashed.
