A United Airlines flight had to abort takeoff at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport when one of the plane’s engines caught fire Monday - sending smoke gushing out from one of the wings as seen in a dramatic video from the tarmac.
United Flight 2091 was set to fly to Seattle at around 2 p.m. when its engine burst into flames on the taxiway and forced 148 passengers and five crew members to evacuate after the Airbus 320 was towed back to a gate, the Federal Aviation Administration and United Airlines said in separate statements.
Footage shot by a passenger from inside the plane showed thick smoke coming from one of the wings as the aircraft drove on the tarmac.
The passenger who took the video, Ivan Paloalto, told Storyful he heard an explosion as the plane was nearing takeoff.

Although the plane’s manufacturer is in the video description, I find the “journalism” to be a little biased. Had this been a Boeing, it almost certainly would’ve said as much in the title of the video versus the description. Also, this is a clear example that the issues we’re seeing in the air travel industry have a lot less to do with a singular manufacturer and more to do with the industry’s lack of training and oversight in the maintenance department.

Planes should be designed with parachutes for every single person. Non of this 20 lifeboats per 1000 passengers ideology.

This would not work. Rapid depressurization, mass hysteria, etc

And a very scary Spirit Airlines Airbus A321 emergency landing at Montego Bay 2 days ago where passengers were told to put on life vests in case of a water landing.

First it was America's 🇺🇸 Boeing and now Europe's Airbus!!! What's going on in the west??? Glad lives were saved. Better go back to using cruise ships to cross these seas and oceans around the world at this rate!!
