A Delta Airlines Airbus A330-300, registration N808NW performing flight
DL-304 from Honolulu,HI to Atlanta,GA (USA), was climbing through FL260 out of Honolulu about 80nm northeast of Kahului,HI (USA) when the crew declared Mayday reporting the failure of the right hand engine (PW4168) and decided to return to Honolulu. Descending towards FL160 the crew advised they had reduced the engine to idle due to a compressor stall followed by overtemperature and vibrations. The aircraft landed safely back on Honolulu's runway 08L about one hour after departure.
