A Delta flight departed from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport at 7:55 p.m. Tuesday. The pilot heard a noise, and the aircraft was forced to return due to engine problems, CBS Atlanta affiliate WGCL-TV reports.
Passengers then boarded a second flight that left at 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday night. The pilot heard a noise again, and the aircraft returned to the gate Wednesday at about 1:45 a.m.
Alex Brown, a passenger, reportedly said he heard a loud banging on that flight.... "And (a Delta official) came back on and said we're going to turn around. Everything is OK with the airplane but ... we're going to turn around" as a precaution.

There are 10,000 sealed federal indictments from 2017 sitting in courts around the US right now (1000 per year is about “normal”) and those corruptocrats in our government and their enablers are trying to leave the country real quiet like. Expect “funny business” and odd excuses for it to continue as the rats try to abandon the ship. Expect CEO resignations and congresscritters to abruptly decide not to seek reelection to continue with perhaps as many as 30 congresscritters not returning from winter break.
Sounds a tad like this landing: (30 second video at link)

The flight from ATL to Tokyo is very strange. If there was a person onboard who got on with a boarding pass for a different flight (that’s the biggest load of bull I ever heard) why turn around? especially four hours into the flight?
“A passenger on a delayed Ryanair flight from London who apparently got fed up waiting to get off a plane after it landed in the southern Spanish city of Malaga surprised fellow passengers by using the emergency exit to jump onto a wing.”

Sure it’s a low percentage of total flights but it’s still a bunch of weirdness in one week. Oh and BTW it just so happens to be the week immediately following President Trump’s new EO. Just a coincidence I’m sure. Except I don’t believe in coincidences.
Don’t
Ever
Leave
The
Airport
Yep.
Customs systems went down yesterday.
Yeah...I meant to mention that as well.
Do you think the rope loops tightened around her head cut off circulation to the brain?
By the time you taxi and wait at ATL and taxi and wait at CLT it’s still over an hour :(
Funny you mentioned those “things” on her head——I couldn’t figure out if it was a hat or a hairpiece.
No matter what it is,it’s a big mistake.
.
I heard that the EU was having such issues as well.
1991 Flying Air Italia from Dubrovnik to Ljubljana on an Air Bus 319.
Horrendous noise on takeoff.
Was relieved to be changing flights in Ljubljana.
...except that 45 min. later we were boarding the same aircraft with a different flight number to continue to London.
So, as we boarded I asked the flight attendant whether they’d fixed that terrible noise?
Without batting an eye she says, “Oh, that’s no problem....it goes away after we’re airborne......”
That noise was the kid kicking the back of my seat!
With the TSA in charge of security I will never fly commercial ........
1.Power outage at ATK
2.Power Outage at New Orleans
3.Something on the order of ten airports in the US and Europe all evacuated 1/1/18 for various weird reasons
4.The flight from LA to Tokyo that turned around half way because of a 'stowaway'
4.Two fights from ATL turn around and return midflight yesterday
This...
All this weirdness in a week?"

You may not be as off the mark as you seem to think.
I know for a fact that in the past two days I heard a report on Fox25 Boston about a plane that had to turn back to its terminal.
(How do I know? Because I was suckered in by one of their "teases": I was about to leave the room when they said "When we come back, why this flight returned to the terminal at Logan." I was interested in the "why," so I waited through the commercial break.) It turned out to be something that officials said was no big deal after all.
So, I was going to add it to your list.
But what happened?
I went to the website for Fox 25 Boston, and used their search function -- powered by Google -- and there was no mention of the incident found when entering either the word "flight" or "Logan."
Furthermore, they provide only ten pages of results. No more.
And the search results are not in chronological order.
The result being, they can show you any results they feel like showing you, and omit any they don't want you to see. And if challenged, can always fall back on plausible deniability: "Well, they're not in chronological order, they are in order of popularity, you understand, and your search just wasn't popular. It wasn't that we didn't show it to you; it just didn't make the top ten pages of search results."
Result: you can't find a recent story about a plane abandoning its flight plan on this website, although you know it was on this website.
And I do believe that is, no accident, nor mere incompetence, but by design.
I mean, really, why would not a news station have its own stories’ search results appear in the good old “most recent” format?
What purpose could any other format serve?
The bottom line is, bookmark or save any news story you are interested in. Don’t depend on the mistaken idea that you will be able to search for it and find it in the future.
