An American Airlines flight heading from San Francisco to Dallas made an emergency landing when the cabin’s wall panels cracked loose.
The Boeing 757 departed from San Francisco International Airport shortly before 1 p.m EST . Monday, and the captain decided to turn around an hour into the flight to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport because of a possible blown air duct.
Flight 2293 landed without incident about 2:15 p.m EST. No one on the plane with 184 passengers and six crew members was hurt. Even though the plane’s problem is related to pressurisation, the cabin did not lose pressure and oxygen masks did not deploy.
