delta plane fire orlandoA Delta Air Lines flight caught fire on the ground in Orlando and was safely evacuated.

According to the airline, flight 1213 was scheduled to travel between Orlando and Atlanta on Monday when flames were spotted in one of its engine tailpipes.

A Delta spokesperson said there were 282 customers, 10 flight attendants and two pilots aboard the Airbus A330.

Kyle Becker, 38, was on the flight, en route from Orlando to Nashville, and said the experience was surprisingly orderly.

“I had a window seat on that side. I had my shade closed because I was planning to take a nap,” he told USA TODAY “I heard people yell fire, so I opened my shade and there was flame and smoke coming from the wing.”
