There’s a video supposedly showing it on fire at takeoff??

Looks to be in the center engine. Maybe a compressor stall??

I'm backing off on the compressor stall theory. The flames are too sustained. Now looks like a catastrophic centerline engine fire.

In the L-1011 the engine is embedded in the rear fuselage in the tail empennage.
