Delta Air Lines flight DL4811 suffered an APU fire during startup at Nashville International Airport, TN (BNA). The aircraft had been pushed back from the gate for a flight to Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport, KY (CVG) when the APU was started. Large flames emanted from the APU on the right rear side of the plane. The flames died quickly as the APU was shut down by the crew.
