A Delta Air Lines A330, which took off from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport bound for London, was forced to return to the airport when an engine caught fire forcing an emergency landing shortly after takeoff.
“Airport response vehicles met the aircraft upon arrival,” Delta said in a statement. “The airplane was towed to the gate, where customers deplaned through the jetway and will be accommodated on a different aircraft. The safety of our customers and crew is always our top priority and we apologize to our customers on this flight.”
