Investigation underway after engine fire ignites on Spirit Airlines flight

Multiple people on the ground near the airport reported hearing loud booms as the plane flew overhead.

It flew right over my house. It sounded like bombs repeatedly going off. Terrifying.

I kept telling them.. "there's a monster on the wing! He's tearing the engine apart!" They wouldn't listen to me!! 😳

Wait! Doesn't this happen on all Spirit flights?

Maybe there was that usual fight onboard again and one of them got thrown out to the engine. Anyway I hope everyone is alright and the cabin didn't smell like poop after almost half of passengers poop themselves

They've been falling out the sky since they started flying. I don't know what it's going to take to ground all Spirit airplanes and close that Airline down
