UNITED UA169 DIVERTS TO LONDON AFTER TECHNICAL ISSUE United flight UA169, a Boeing 767-400ER (N76062), was flying from Venice 🇮🇹 to Newark 🇺🇸 when the crew declared an emergency after reporting a technical problem. The aircraft descended to 17,000 feet and entered a holding pattern near the UK while dumping fuel to reduce its landing weight. After about 2 hours and 35 minutes, the aircraft landed safely on Runway 09L at London Heathrow 🇬🇧 and taxied to Terminal 2, where passengers disembarked normally. The 767 was subsequently towed to a maintenance facility for inspection. United has not yet disclosed the exact nature of the technical problem or announced the arrangements for the affected passengers. Runway 972: Boarding Pass to the Hottest Aviation Buzz ⤵️
