美联航UA 293航班原定于上周日从丹佛飞往奥兰多,但因飞行途中出现引擎故障被迫返航。有乘客拍下了左引擎蒙皮被掀开,疑似快要脱落的视频。
#United Airlines, a #Boeing 737-800 (reg. N27239), flight #UA292 departed from #Denver at around 8:00am for #Orlando when the left hand engine suffered an issue, the crew decided to return back to Denver.

据报导,这架波音 737飞机在起飞大约一小时后返回丹佛。根据GMA广播的通话音频,发现故障后,飞行员联系了空中交通管制,称“我们需要快点回到丹佛,飞机的引擎皮肤已经脱落,我们有6个小时左右的燃料,机上一共196人”。
飞机安全着陆后,美联航已经安排所有乘客搭乘另一架飞机前往奥兰多,同时联系维修团队为飞机做全面检查。
对此,美联航表示:“我们对为大家造成的不便表示抱歉,你们的安全是我们的首要任务!我们知道今天返航不是大家计划的一部分,我们很感谢大家的谅解。”
BREAKING: Plane crashed into a wooded area in DeLand. Our photographer there can see smoke coming from it. Working to get a picture from him as we head that way from the Orlando airport, where I was working on another flight problem story. (1)
