According to media reports, an Air Canada Boeing 777 carrying 389 passengers suffered engine failure and burst into flames shortly after takeoff, and eventually returned to Toronto Pearson International Airport in an emergency. Fortunately, the accident did not cause any injuries. The incident has attracted widespread attention, and witnesses uploaded the scene to social media, sparking heated discussions among netizens.
According to the New York Post, Air Cananda AC872 left the gate at 8:46 p.m. Toronto time on Wednesday (June 5) and took off from Pearson Airport at 9:21 a.m., with its destination being Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport. Unexpectedly, shortly after the plane left the runway, the right wing engine of this Boeing 777 spewed flames several times. After climbing to an altitude of 3,300 feet, the crew decided to return immediately and landed safely at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
The video shows that not only the right wing engine but also the tail wing of the plane are on fire. In the video, someone keeps exclaiming "The engine is on fire!" and shouting "Oh my God" and "Damn" many times. After the incident, the plane quickly returned to Pearson Airport and landed at 9:50 pm. The firefighters took over the handling immediately.
In response, Air Canada said that the cause of the engine fire was unknown. It said that after landing, the plane was inspected by the relevant airport units in accordance with standard operating procedures and taxied to the boarding gate on its own. None of the 389 passengers on board were injured and were subsequently arranged to take another flight to continue their journey. The plane that caught fire was suspended from service and is awaiting evaluation and inspection by maintenance personnel. The plane will not be put back into service until the cause is found and the problem is fixed. Aviation Source News pointed out that Air Canada told Toronto local media CP24 that there may be a problem with the engine compressor, which caused the plane to catch fire.
