I would check the black box to see if the crew was playing with the switches.

Maintenance issue.

Maybe replaced an engine component and forgot to do a leak check.

Nothing to see, here (except flames on a jet engine) ... move along.

Glad they were able to land, safely. 🙏🏻

Been watching the series The Outsider by Stephen King.
Brilliant woman said she is aviophobic.

The author is, too. Edited the collection Fright or Flight of stories about the topic, with one by himself.

DEI

Longer maintenance schedules

Unreliable/non OEM parts

Maintenance folks not up to snuff for one or more reasons

Not enough maintenance folks

If you look at the ground crews at major airports you would think you landed in Mogadishu. It is frightening..

It depends on the model. They use Rolls Royce, GE and Pratt and Whitney.

Unreliable/non OEM parts

I had a friend in Florida who worked part time for the FBI trying to track down counterfeit aircraft parts. I think they usually get the shapes perfect, but the materials are not up to par.

That would have absolutely nothing to do with an engine fire—except they would turn the fuel control OFF on the engine once if was on fire.

Would someone please explain how this is Trump’s fault?

Did Delta hire some Muslims in the aircraft maintenance department?

Another reason my wife and I haven’t flown since 9/11: no more 4-engine planes...

Also, we were in Las Vegas on 9/11 and, eventually, we rented a car and drove halfway across the country, with one of our sons driving there from Maryland to pick us up...
