A Delta Airlines Airbus A330-300, registration N806NW performing flight

DL-30 from Atlanta,GA (USA) to London Heathrow,EN (UK) with 288 people
on board, was in the initial climb out of Atlanta's runway 26L when the
crew, just when they were about to be handed off to departure, declared
emergency reporting they had a fire on the #2 engine (PW4168), the fire
bell sounding in the background. The crew stopped the climb at 7000
feet. Another crew reported they did indeed have black smoke coming from
the right hand engine. The crew requested runway 27R and a long approach
while they were working the checklists. The crew shut the engine down
and activated the fire suppression. The crew advised they might have hot
brakes after landing and wanted emergency services to check out the
right hand engine. Tower reported the right hand still appeared to be
smoking. The aircraft landed on Atlanta's runway 27R about 25 minutes
after departure. Tower reported there was an active engine fire on the
right hand engine and cleared all fire vehicles onto the runway stating
repeatedly there was an active fire. Flames were seen from the right
hand engine after the aircraft came to a stop, emergency services foamed
the engine and put the fire out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
the crew received a number 2 engine fire ECAM message at 500 feet AGL,
declared emergency, shut the engine down, discharged both fire bottles
and returned to Atlanta for an overweight landing without further
incident.
