Delta loses an active M11 to fire

as reported on a.net:

"Maintenance was going to taxi it somewhere and the number 3 engine caught fire as they were starting it up. They busted both bottles attempting to put the fire out, but apparently it didn't work. The crew evacuated on a slide and the airport firefighters put the fire out. The right wing suffered major damage. As of right now, the plane is sitting in one of the maintenance hangers."
