The Airbus A380-800 with registration A6-EUL was scheduled to depart as flight EK262 from Sao Paulo to Dubai. However, while the aircraft was accelerating for takeoff on runway 10L, the left engine experienced a brief surge.

A loud bang erupted from one of the left-hand Rolls-Royce GP7270 engines, followed by streaks of flames, as reported by the Aviation Herald. Reacting swiftly, the crew rejected the takeoff at a low speed of approximately 40 knots.

The aircraft taxied off the runway via taxiway “Lima” without further incident.

Following the engine issue, the flight was ultimately canceled. The A380 remained grounded in Sao Paulo for repairs until June 17th, when it returned to Dubai.
