Video Shows Engine Fire as Plane Returns to Las Vegas Airport Just After Takeoff
An American Airlines plane that had what appeared to be an engine on fire returned to the airport in Las Vegas and landed shortly after takeoff on Wednesday, according to video of the plane and the Federal Aviation Administration.
A video of the plane, which was operating as American Airlines Flight 1665, showed it banking in the sky with smoke and what appeared to be flames sputtering from an engine.

The F.A.A. said the crew had reported 'an engine issue,' and the plane, which was headed to Charlotte, N.C., 'returned safely' to Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas at about 8:20 a.m. local time. It was unclear how many people were on board.
American Airlines did not immediately respond to a request for comment. FlightRadar24, a flight tracking service, showed the plane, an Airbus A321, took off at 8:11 a.m. and flew in a small loop around the Las Vegas area before landing at the airport.
