Homeowners. New this morning how they used the internet to pick their targets. Revealed in jailhouse interviews. And hot in cleveland. Cavs fans in a frenzy as the greatest basketball player on the planet, lebron james says hes ready to come home. Whats behind the kings move back to the city where he once broke millions of hearts. And who else will be cashing in as all appears to be forgiven. Hey, good morning. Well talk about the sudden turnaround, the emotional turnaround in cleveland where theyre all of a sudden very forgiving. Theyre very excited. Well start with a travelers nightmare. Flying over water in one of the remote spots on earth when the smoke starts to fill the cabin, the pilot comes over the speakers to say the radar is down and need to make an emergency landing. Travelers nightmare. Thats what happened to the passengers on boa united flight 7 from hawaii to guam and landed on Midway Island sheltering inside an old gym. We begin our coverage this morning with Abcs David Kerley in our washington bureau. Reporter bianna, the passengers just a bit ago finally made it to guam but at the last report the 777 was still on the ground at midway forced to make a landing this after something went very wrong with the aircraft. This is the 777 jetliner crippled on the ground on Midway Island after a frightening turnaround over the Pacific Ocean. It was five hours into the flight when passengers started worrying about a strange smell in the cabin. That plane went like that and it just failed. I dont know how far. Reporter and then the surprising announcement from the captain. And he said then they said well have to divert to midway. Reporter the 777 was flying from hawaii to guam thursday but then the smell and the captains announcement which according to some say the radar was malfunctioning and the smell was turning into smoke. I looked at my wife and said i love you and kissed her and we told each other goodbye because we thought we were going to die. Reporter so the aircraft which passed the island of midway a former navy base turned away from guam and made that unplanned landing. Passengers got off the crippled plane and carts were used to move them to a gymnasium where they holded up for six hours while a replacement was flown out. For these travelers it was back to high eye and this morning another flight, this time finally making it to guam after crisscrossing the Pacific Ocean and some scary moments. United is not providing details on what happened to the widebodied airliner describing it as mechanical. A grueling couple of days now over in guam in for those passengers. I believe with all my heart we landed on angels wings. Reporter from flight tracking programs it appears the pilot was going to try to make it back to into high before he changed his mind and decided to put it down in midway with that mechanical issue as they describe it. Dan and bianna. What a hore rowing story, david, thank you. Lets bring in colonel Steve Ganyard in washington. Youve flown in this part of the world before. How dire is it when you smell smoke in the cockpit and youre way out in the middle of nowhere. Good morning, dan. Its daschles get your attention as a pilot very quickly. Its hard to describe sometimes for people who havent flown in this part of the pacific how far it is between bases or landing fields you could put a jet down if you have a problem. Remember this was also at night so things are always a little harder at night. Visual cues are not there so im sure this got the crews attention very quickly when they smelled smoke way out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Tell us about midway where they landed. Midway is an interesting place. Between guam and honolulu as you head to the west, there are really only two Remote Island tolls and theyre just sea mounts and the runways on them are nice long runways but take up almost the whole atoll. You can through for hours and see this little speck, looks like an Aircraft Carrier and thats your landing field. Thats where they had to go. Remember back in 1942 this was the scene of the United States victory over japan at the battle of midway. Historic island for sure and now in yet another way. There have been timese were talking earlier about smoke in the cockpit. There have been times where smoke in the cockpit has turned deadly. Can you tell us about that. You bet. So five is the worst thing that can happen on an airplane. You can have an engine where you need to shut an engine down and fly for five hours on one engine. Its not a problem but dont want to fight a fire on a cockpit and if youre flying over the u. S. You have time to put it down underneath you but out in the pacific. Very few places to go and had a couple of serious tragedy, swissair flight that crashed in canada and u. P. S. Out flight that crashed in dubai because the crew did not get the jet on the ground as soon as possible so this crew is obviously thinking we need to get this jet down. We think we have it under control but they took no chances and did the right thing. All right. Colonel Steve Ganyard as i said, a harrowing story. We appreciate your input this morning. Thanks to you. Bianna. Well turn now to the king, lebron james, that is, returning to the throne he left in cleveland four years ago for south beach.

Lebron wont make it into economic textbook. Dan gilbert is making a lot of money, the owner of the kavsz. And his son is very happy he can wear his jersey. The other pressing question, will he keep 23 or is he going to keep 6 . Wh the heat he was 6 and, of course, with the cavs he was 23. The nba says the contract has to be signed and submitted to the league. We think thats going to happen today. Theyre preselling the jerseys right now with 00 but they say if you buy it now itll come with the number that he eventually chooses. References contracts, what did you say 85 million.
