O'Hare flight makes emergency landing
A Boeing 747 bound for Hong Kong made an emergency landing at O'Hare International Airport Saturday because of unspecified problems with a temperature probe, officials said.
United Airlines Flight 895 was about an hour into the 13-hour trip when the pilot rerouted it back to O'Hare, where the plane had departed at 1:37 p.m. United spokeswoman Megan McCarthy said 323 passengers and 18 crew members were on board.
The aircraft landed safely at O'Hare at 5:27 p.m., McCarthy said. The flight was delayed until Sunday.
