American Airlines plane catches f!re at Denver airport, 12 hospitalised with minor injuries


Passengers on an American Airlines flight were forced to stand on the wing of the plane at Denver International Airport as they evacuated the aircraft after one of its engines caught f!re Thursday evening, sending thick black smoke billowing into the air.

 

American Airlines Flight 1006, a Boeing 737-800 en route to Dallas-Fort Worth from Colorado Springs with 172 passengers and six crew aboard, diverted to Denver around 5:15 p.m. local time, after the crew reported “engine vibrations,” the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.

 

“After landing and while taxiing to the gate an engine caught fire,” the statement said. The FAA is investigating.

 

Shortly before landing, the plane’s pilot notified air traffic controllers in Denver that the flight was experiencing engine issues, but it was not an emergency, according to air traffic control audio from LiveATC.net.


 

Twelve passengers were taken to the hospital with minor injuries, the Denver Fire Department told CNN.
