On Dec. 21, 2016, an ElAl Boeing 767-300ER, powered by Pratt & Whitney PW4000 turbofan engines, registration number 4X-EAM, while climbing through 13,000 ft. from Pearson International Airport (YYZ), Toronto, Canada, experienced a loss of power of the right hand engine with associated vibrations and a subsequent yawing motion of the airplane. It was reported that passengers saw fire from the engine. The engine was shut down and the airplane landed uneventfully at YYZ. The State of Israel Ministry of Transport, Aviation Incidents & Accidents Investigation is investigating the incident. As the state of manufacture of the airplane and engines, the NTSB has designated a U.S. Accredited Representative under the provisions of Annex 13 to the Convention of Civil Aviation to assist the AI in their investigation.
