Another fiery blaze that fortunately nobody got hurt. One new report said “engines just shut down “and they aborted take off.

Probably. You can ask the mods if they can move it.

I wonder if this is a result of the recent DEF contamination in jet fuel?

I just happened to be out there right after it happened. I'll be surprised if that was the issue.
