United Airlines grounding Boeing 777 planes following near-disaster David Matthews
United Airlines announced Sunday evening that it was temporarily grounding Boeing 777 planes with the same engines as the one that experienced failure during a Saturday flight.
Shortly after flight 328 took off, the pilot made a mayday call after one of the plane’s engines burst into flames and sent debris falling from the sky. Since 2018, a number of older 777 planes, including another United flight, have experienced catastrophic failure leading to emergency landings. While no injuries have resulted in these engine failures, the troubling trend appears to have spooked United into temporarily ground their 777 models that have the same type of engine, the Pratt & Whitney 4000.
