British Airways 777 Catches Fire in Las Vegas After Engine Failure
A Boeing Co. 777-200 operated by British Airways suffered a major engine failure as it was beginning its takeoff in Las Vegas, triggering a fire and requiring an emergency evacuation, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The failure occurred in the left engine as the aircraft was accelerating on the runway for takeoff late on Tuesday, an FAA spokesman said.
The jet stopped safely before becoming airborne, allowing passengers and crew to exit the aircraft safely before the fire worsened, he said.
The jet, operating as flight 2276, was the airline’s scheduled service from McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas to London Gatwick airport.
McCarran Airport said later that the fire had been extinguished.
British Airways, a unit of International Consolidated Airlines Group SA, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
A tweet from Boeing’s Twitter account said it was aware of the incident and was gathering information.
The aircraft was operating with General Electric Co. engines, and the manufacturer said it was gathering initial information about what transpired in Las Vegas.
Though they are extremely rare, engine failures on takeoff are among the most trained-for incidents by airline pilots. Aircraft and their crews are dispatched with precise speeds and weight calculations to allow an aircraft to stop safely during the high-acceleration during the takeoff process.
If an engine fails just as the nose of a Boeing 777 is lifting or the instant the plane leaves the ground, its automated fly-by-wire systems automatically adjust thrust in the remaining good engine and manipulate controls to assist the pilot and ensure the jet remains controllable.

Since this model of aircraft started flying passengers 20 years ago, Boeing and safety regulators world-wide have regarded the 777, and particularly its various engine variants, as one of the industry leaders in safety and reliability.
The early 777 fleet broke new ground by receiving approval from U.S. and foreign authorities to fly routes over water, taking the jets increasingly longer distances from emergency strips.
Later, the 777 was the first model to get such approvals based entirely on flight and ground tests of engines, without first demonstrating reliability in commercial service.
Some two years ago, Boeing officials emphasized that the 777’s engines were so reliable that not a single jetliner had suffered an engine failure on a takeoff roll just as it was about to become airborne. |

boleh terangkan lagi tak the concept seakan akan ' point of no return' as in...bila gain speed yg pilot tu tahu yg dia tak boleh lagi dah nak manipulate kelajuan kapal atau slowing down lagi dah...kat berapa unit kelajuan ye yg depa pilot ni dah tak boleh nak buat apa apa dah ? |
