A cargo plane made an emergency landing in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Hawaii early Friday and both people on board have been rescued.

The pilots of the Transair Flight 810 had reported engine trouble and were attempting to return to Honolulu when they were forced to land the Boeing 737 cargo aircraft in the water, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.

Cargo thankfully. But the same planes also carry passengers. Was it a 737MAX?

[Seruzawa]

Only a reporter would think that you could land an airplane in an ocean.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Sound like it just a regular 737.

Were they able to save “Wilson?”

[Larry Lucido]

“Water grounding”? Nah.

“Water ditching”? Same problem.

Transair Flight 810

It identified as air, so there's nothing to see here.

[New Perspective]

It was an older version of the 737.

[CodeJockey]

Being reported now that one is in critical condition, the other serious condition.

Yes. But it’s still not “landed”.

[Blueflag]

On flights that travel over water and the flight attendants do the safety pitch about the life jackets, they do say “in the unlikely event of a water landing...”

[Blueflag]

Climb and dive at 105.

Please consider those reporting in the Max also reported on Trump, HcQ, Russia gate, Baseless vote fraud, covid/covid vaccine, ect

See the pattern?

[stockpirate]

When it sank to the bottom of the ocean it touched land.

[pfflier]

Yup, the pictures online look like it was the Jurassic version. Maybe a -100 with JT-3D engines.

[nesnah]

Were they able to save Loretta Fuddy this time?

[Seruzawa]

Ok. I stand corrected. I just hope the next time I fly there aren’t any freeper pilots flying the plane.

[Mogger]

When a float plane alights on water, it is still called "landing".

So when a non float plane alights on water, it would still be "landing", just with "sinking" happening next.

[Veggie Todd]

Knowing my luck, my Amazon order was probably on it.
