Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77076, member: 636"] A United Airlines Boeing 777 heading to Tokyo had to turn around and land back at Dulles after one of its engines lost power right after takeoff. Part of the engine cover fell off and started burning, and debris from the thing sparked a small brush fire near the runway that got put out pretty quickly. All 275 passengers and 15 crew members made it back safely with zero injuries reported. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed the engine cover piece came loose and caught fire before hitting the ground. Some dude grilling steaks near Quantico watched the whole thing go down and knew something was wrong when he saw the commercial jet banking hard and what looked like fuel getting dumped. The FAA is looking into what happened. [/QUOTE]
