A passenger documented the moment a wing caught fire on American Airlines Flight 2228, heading from Charlotte Douglas International Airport to Dallas-Fort Worth Airport Thursday night.
“We were taking off as usual, when the wheels go up we feel a little bump. And suddenly we hear an explosion,” said Frankie Liggington.
“Nobody knows what’s going on, so the first thing that comes to everyone’s mind is that the plane is going to explode. So everyone is grabbing their bags and trying to run away and run down the aisle,” she added.
An American Airlines spokesperson told Channel 9 that the plane had a mechanical problem, and the cause of the fire was unclear.
