Delta plane engine catches fire during take-off from LA | ABC NEWS

Описание: A Delta Airlines aircraft engine caught fire during take-off from Los Angeles airport on Friday, forcing the plane to turn back shortly after its departure to make an emergency landing.

Video obtained by Reuters from aviation broadcaster LA Flights showed flames spitting out from what looked like the left engine of the Boeing 767-400 during its ascent over Los Angles. Delta flight DL446, en route from Los Angeles to Atlanta, then circled back and landed safely at the runway with several emergency services waiting at the tarmac, the footage showed. There was no report of injuries to the passengers or crew.

The US Federal Aviation Administration has launched an official investigation to determine the exact cause of the fire.
