March 2 (Reuters) – A United Airlines flight on Monday made an emergency landing shortly after departing Los Angeles after suffering an engine issue, forcing passengers on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner to deplane on a taxiway, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The FAA said United Airlines Flight 2127 — which was bound for Newark — returned safely to Los Angeles around 2:20 p.m. ET. The FAA issued a ground stop at Los Angeles as a result of the incident. CBS Los Angeles said fire crews appeared to hose off its left engine.
