Engine fire Cape Town?
 

A friend was travelling between Jo'burg and Cape Town on a SA Airways jet of unknown type aprox three weeks ago.Close to destination passangers were informed that there was an engine fire necessatating an emergency approach and stop.No evacuation was made and no more information followed.Any one know if there was a fire, how far out it occured and details for interests sake. :eek:

I do know that a SAX RJ had to shut down a engine the other day and return to JHB as one of my friends was the co-pilot. Thats about what i know. See what i can dig up !! :rolleyes:

Thanks blueline not convinced this is the same incident as my mate was approaching destination when it occured and I'm sure he was into Cape Town.Who knows,still interested though.
