Air Canada Boeing plane bursts into flames seconds after taking off

11. This is true

Compressor stalls with flow interruption that allowed not-yet-combusted gasses to briefly ignite near the exit nozzle. "Engine fire" is misleading. There was no reporting that the firex was activated.

Another poster above correctly mentions that the engines are not built by Boeing and thus have nothing to do with Boeing's recent issues.

Suckish reporting and over the top reactions and assumptions. This kind of thing happens more often than is reported, and pilots and airlines have procedures for handling it that always leads to a safe landing and re-booking of passengers.

Somebody please unplug the media. Between shit like this and all the pro-Trump nonsense by the so-called MSM, I'm fed up.
