- Date: October 29, 2015
- Aircraft: Boeing 767-200
- Location: Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Florida, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Taxi
- Cause: NTSB: the fuel line flexible coupling loosened and leaked because maintenance personnel failed to install the required safety lockwire; the evacuation starting before the right engine was shut down contributed to a passenger injury.
On 29 October 2015 Dynamic International Airways Boeing 767 200ER N251MY, on a charter from Fort Lauderdale Hollywood to Caracas with 101 people aboard, developed a fuel leak and fire in the left engine strut while taxiing for departure. The crew shut down the left engine and passengers forced an evacuation that began before the right engine was stopped, seriously injuring one passenger. The NTSB found the aircraft was damaged beyond economic repair.
