Smoke started to fill the cockpit. The crew actioned the ‘Smoke, Fumes and Fire’, and the ‘Smoke Removal’ checklists and diverted to Providenciales without further incident. The smoke was attributed to a seal in a Low Pressure Fuel Pump that had failed, allowing fuel to enter the oil system and then the bleed air system.
