According to the flight tracking website FlightAware, Flight 1118, with 167 passengers on board, took off from George Bush Intercontinental Airport at 6:40 pm local time. Just minutes after takeoff, the plane returned to the airport because of the engine issue.
"The plane was nosediving, and the pilot was bringing the plane back up," passenger Elliot Trexler said, adding, "The plane was also rocking back and forth a lot."
"And then it just turned into chaos. People were screaming and crying and trying to figure out what was going on," Gruninger said.
Radio transmission from the pilots described "our left engine, our number one engine," experienced an issue while climbing through about 10,000 feet.
The plane trip from hell lasted about 33 minutes after takeoff. Pilots landed safely around 7:31 local time—United credited passengers with $200 and a $15 meal voucher.
