    Japan-bound United Airlines flight returns to San Francisco with faulty engine


    By Heather Somerville | SAN FRANCISCO
    A United Airlines flight bound for Japan experienced an engine malfunction after takeoff on Monday and returned to San Francisco International Airport, where it landed safely, airline and federal aviation officials said.
    No injuries were reported from the incident involving United Flight 837, which ended when the four-engine Boeing Co 747 aircraft touched down without further incident shortly before 1:45 p.m.
    A United Airlines spokeswoman, Erin Benson, said the plane was carrying 202 passengers and 15 crew members en route to Narita International Airport on Tokyo. The Federal Aviation Administration initially reported that 231 people were aboard the jet.
    The landing was described as "normal" in radio communications between the flight crew and air traffic controllers, as monitored on specialist website liveatc.net.
    Shortly after the landing, the pilot contacted ground controllers to explain the trouble.
    "We need the fire department to take a look at our No. 2 engine because it had an indication of compressor stall and possibly some paint that came out during the compressor stall," the pilot was heard saying.
    Benson also cited a stalled compressor in one of the engines as the reason for the plane's return to San Francisco, adding that the airline could not confirm media reports of smoke or fire from the incident.
    The aircraft was powered by Pratt & Whitney PW4056 engines. The engine maker is working with the operator to assess the situation, a Pratt & Whitney spokeswoman said.
    The airlines spokeswoman also said the pilot did not declare an emergency and that the landing followed about two hours of total flight time, including steps the crew took to dump excess jet fuel as a precaution before touchdown.
    The flight-tracking website flightradar24 shows the plane flew several lengthy circuits just off the Pacific Coast west and south of San Francisco before returning to the airport to land - a sign that the trouble started soon after takeoff.

    Brazil football team in Colombia plane crash

    A plane carrying 72 people, including a Brazilian football team, has crashed on its approach to the city of Medellin in Colombia, officials say.
    Details are unclear but some reports say there are survivors.
    The chartered plane, flying from Bolivia, was carrying members of the Chapocoense football team, airport officials said.
    The team was due to play in the final of the South American club cup with Medellin team Atletico Nacional.
    The final has now been suspended.
    Reports say the plane crashed in a mountainous area outside the city shortly before midnight local time (05:00 GMT).
    Medellin's Mayor Federico Gutierrez described it as "a tragedy of huge proportions", but added it was possible there were survivors.
