A UPS United Parcel Service Boeing 767-300 freighter, registration N356UP performing flight 5X-237 from Philadelphia,PA (USA) to East Midlands,EN (UK), was enroute at FL370 over the Atlantic Ocean about 600nm east of St. John's,NL (Canada) when the right hand engine (CF6) suffered a number of surges causing also the autothrottle to disconnect. The aircraft descended to FL270, turned around and diverted to St. John's for a safe landing on runway 28 about 2 hours later.
The aircraft is still on the ground in St. John's about 4 days later.
