Nothing to say, yet
The speaker was on a flight and reached a cruise altitude of 39,000 feet. Suddenly, there was a loud bang and they declared a mayday due to a fire in one of the engines. They had to divert to the nearest airport for safety and began an emergency descent. After a few minutes, they successfully landed at the closest airport. About 25 minutes later, we were reaching a cruise altitude, 39,000 feet. I was preparing the approach when a loud bang started over at us. Whoa, what just happened? Mayday, mayday, mayday, B91121, we have fire on a red engine requesting flight level 260. We had to divert to the nearest airport to protect the passengers. We found that 9th airport was the closest and the safest airport we could land on. So we started an emergency descent. A few minutes later, we were on the final of the run which we won at last. Checked, stabilized, full brakes, whatever, we have to stop.
