Delta 767 Diverts to Prestwick
Delta 767 Diverted to Prestwick after taking off from Edinburgh
Seems to have had an engine problem like it was surging.
Embarrassingly all Scottish media and even the BBC is reporting as the wing being on fire

Glasgow, Edinburgh available but chose Prestwick, a few minutes further away. Seems likely to be most convenient for the airports I would guess.

Having watched from the ground a heavy DC-10 with a number 1 compressor stall departing Honolulu, I do not fault reports of flame and fire. While the wing was not on fire, the thumps, belches and flames were quite impressive and caught everyone's attention and is still a vivid memory.. She was already dumping fuel abreast Waikiki, and much closer than the normal pattern (avoiding turning into #1) . Continental @1991,
