United Flight from Australia Makes Emergency Landing in Sydney After Fluid Leaks from Landing Gear
- A United Airlines flight from Australia to San Francisco turned back and made an emergency landing in Sydney after experiencing a "maintenance issue"
- This latest incident follows a string of recent high-profile incidents with United planes, including planes veering off runways, losing tires, and flames from engines
- Video shows fluid spewing from the rear right landing gear during takeoff; smoke pouring from the same area when landing
- The plane landed safely, passengers deplaned normally, and United rebooked them on flights to San Francisco
- United said each event is distinct and unrelated, and that safety is their top priority
