A United Airlines flight suffered a fiery engine failure Saturday on its way to Hawaii. A video of the horrific incident is going viral on the internet.
A video apparently shot by passengers aboard the United Airlines flight is making quite a buzz. The video showed the engine of the plane in flames as it flew through the air. In the video, aircraft can be seen wobbling on the wing of the Boeing 777-200 as the aircraft flew over a barren landscape. Besides video, dramatic images showed plane debris on the ground in residential areas, including an engine lying outside a house.
