"During the take-off run both of the aircraft's engines became severely overheated and were effectively 'burnt out'. The take-off was aborted and the aircraft brought to a safe stop on the runway. Apart from the two engines, damage to the aircraft was minimal and it was returned to service three days later following an engine change."
