Royal Aviation flight 6192 departed from runway 24L at Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International Airport (LBPIA), Ontario, on a domestic flight to Deer Lake, Newfoundland. On board were 3 flight crew, 5 cabin crew, and 183 passengers. The flight, including push-back, engine starts, taxi, and take-off, was routine until the number 2 engine fire warning activated as the aircraft was climbing through 7,000 feet above sea level (asl) on departure. The flight crew carried out the appropriate checks and shut down the number 2 engine. Two fire bottles were discharged into the number 2 engine compartment; however, the fire warning light remained on. The captain declared an emergency with air traffic control and immediately returned to LBPIA for an overweight landing. The fire warning light extinguished as the aircraft returned to the airport. Emergency rescue services (ERS) were waiting as the aircraft landed on runway 24L. There was no fire evident as the aircraft landed and shut down. Inspection revealed that there was residual smoke and fire damage to the structure surrounding the number 2 engine. This is the centre engine, and it is embedded in the empennage structure. The aircraft flight controls were not affected.
