Airbus caught fire in mid-air shortly after takeoff

Post by Henk Voortwijs »

Travellers were left fearing for their lives after an airplane engine burst into flames thousands of feet above ground
Minutes after the flight took off from a Helsinki airport with 168 people on board, the engine exploded and caught fire.
The German-bound Airbus suffered a number of technical problems before streaks of flames emitted from the left engine, 15 minutes after leaving ground.
