SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) -- A Northwest Flight en route from San Francisco to Tokyo was forced to turn around Thursday afternoon after one of its engines stalled. The A330 Airbus took off from SFO around 1:30, but soon had problems with one of its two engines and was forced to turn around.
The plane was able to land safely, and no one on board was injured.
An Air France Airbus A330 crashed in the Atlantic Ocean on June 1 during a flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris after hitting a thunderstorm.
