An aircraft is being inspected after "a split second" of flames was captured by a nearby photographer.
A flicker of fire was seen coming from near the cargo plane's engine as it touched down at East Midlands Airport at about 16:00 BST on Thursday.
Photographer Tony Johnson, an aircraft enthusiast from Nottingham, said it happened in a "split second".
A spokesman for the airport said the airline was investigating reports of a technical issue.
Mr Johnson, 51, said he was lucky to have his camera on the right setting at the right time to capture the flames.
"As it touched down I was looking in the viewfinder in my camera and I saw a quick flash near the engine and I thought, 'what's that?'", he said.
"So I thought I'll check through my camera as it had gone past and luckily my camera had got it," he said.
He said he was too far away to hear anything and said there was no obvious smell of smoke afterwards.
