No right or wrong decision, use good CRM, including crew and passenger PA, however AUH there is two runways and OMDW only one, and no issues on notam or weather on both airport.I declared a Pan Pan. I decided to return and used high speed below 10000 ft. After interception its RAW data ILS. When about to brake visual on the minimums, warning, Eng fire.
