97' California Vacation

April 6th


The flight from Minneapolis to Phoenix went well, but from Phoenix to LA was a different story...
Fire Truck near our plane
You can see the Fire Engine beside our plane as they pull up to check the engine out.

Fireman checking engine
After checking the engine, they determined that there was not a fire going on at that time and let us pull up to the gate that we had just left.

People gathered around engine
As we waited in the airport, they gathered around and opened up the engine area. They seemed to be concerned over what they saw and worked on it for quite a while. Meanwhile they called a new airplane out for us and gathered a new crew (It is apparently an FAA regulation that after a situation like we had happen the crew cannot continue to fly that day).

View outside hotel room
After finally getting to my hotel, I enjoyed the view off the patio of my room.
