Las Vegas plane fire: 'Please remain seated'

Footage has emerged of the moment passengers on board a British Airways plane on a runway in Las Vegas realised it was on fire.

In the video, first given to ABC News, the cabin crew can be heard telling passengers to remain in their seats as flames licked the side of the aircraft.

The burning engine forced the evacuation of 170 people on board on emergency slides - 14 people were taken to hospital with minor injuries.

The fire was later put out.
