HONOLULU—A United Airlines flight landed safely Tuesday in Honolulu after an engine cover came off during its flight from California, the airline said. The airliner landed as emergency responders waited nearby, said Hawaii Department of Transportation spokesman Tim Sakahara. Flight 1175 was travelling to Honolulu from San Francisco. Images posted on social media show an engine with the exterior cover missing as the plane approaches Honolulu. Video shows the engine shaking back and forth with pieces of the broken flapping in the wind.
