High speed RTO in FRA?

Local media reporting of a high speed RTO in FRA today (Monday). Possible eng fail or fire. Destination Malaysia. No details as to which airline.

LH or MAS? Any info?

Probably MAS. Aircraft is still in FRA, parked on the Apron. Colleague reported he saw a flame coming out of the no. 1 engine on T/O Run.

Thanks

Any idea as to the aircraft type?

B-777 or B-747-400?

As far as I remember it was a B777. MAS operates mainly B777 into FRA.

So long
