Flight RO372 was still in Belgian airspace when the engine stall occurred. Passenger and journalist Bogdan Rares who was on the flight explains on Facebook:
Our captain is brilliant! At 7000/8000 feet we heard a loud bang, flames coming from the wings. Terribly unpleasant. The captain calmly explained the situation to head back to Brussels.
