This is the dramatic moment one of the engines of an aeroplane carrying more than 300 passengers explodes as it prepares to take off.
The Airbus A330 was taxiing along the runway at Manchester Airport yesterday when its right engine suddenly developed a fault and exploded.
The aircraft had fortunately not yet left the ground and the pilot was able to quickly bring it under control.
The Thomas Cook Airlines flight TCX314 had been carrying 325 passengers to the Dominican Republic at the time of the incident.

A flame can be seen coming from the engine before it begins to billow smoke.
