A United Boeing 737-9 MAX, registration N37560 performing flight UA-329 from Denver,CO to Boston,MA (USA), was accelerating for takeoff from Denver’s runway 16R when the crew rejected takeoff at high speed, in response to the radio transmission tower reported he could see fire from the left hand engine (LEAP). The crew affirmed and stopped the aircraft, subsequently reporting it appeared they had flat tyres on the right hand side and were disabled. The runway was closed, emergency services responded, tower cleared the crew to evacuate if needed stating “the runway is yours!” While emergency services were responding but had not yet reached the runway tower informed emergency services that they no longer observed any fire, it appears extinguished.
The FAA reported: “AIRCRAFT ON DEPARTURE ROLL, ABORTED TAKEOFF DUE TO SMOKE AND FIRE UNDER RIGHT WING AND ARFF EXTINGUISHED FIRE, DENVER, CO.” providing the aircraft tail number of the replacement aircraft registration N37541.
Pictorial evidence shows fire damage to the right hand side of the aircraft, all four main tyres blown, the right hand main wheel rims abraded.
A replacement Boeing 737-9 MAX registration N37541 reached Boston with a delay of about 5 hours.
