    United 777 Flight to Death Until Passenger Prayed to God

    A family on a United Airlines flight from Hawaii to San Francisco was stunned when their plane nearly nose-dived into the ocean. Taking place on December 18th, recent data discloses that the aircraft descended to a mere 800 feet above the Pacific Ocean shortly after departing.
    Passenger Rod Williams II said the plane was flying normally at first, but then it started to climb at a “concerning rate” for a few seconds. He says the crew got on the intercom and told them everything would be alright.

    What happened on the plane?

    United flight UA1722 left Kahului Airport on December 18, 2022, and took off amid rain and a flash flood warning. The plane was climbing, reaching 2,200 feet, when it suddenly began a steep dive.

    According to flight tracking data, the flight plummeted 1,400 feet and came within 800 feet of the ocean. It stabilised and re-gained altitude before landing in San Francisco 27 minutes early.

    The incident, which lasted less than one minute, is another of a number of near-misses that have occurred in Hawaii this year.

    It also comes on the same day severe turbulence rocked a Hawaiian Airlines flight from Phoenix to Honolulu, injuring 11 people.

    The pilots on the United flight reported the incident to the Federal Aviation Administration as part of a voluntary safety reporting program. The agency reviewed the incident and took appropriate action.

    The moment the plane plummeted toward the ocean

    In a terrifying incident on a United Airlines flight from Hawaii to San Francisco, the plane suddenly plummeted toward the ocean for 21 seconds.

    Father Rod Williams II was on the flight with his wife and children when it plunged. He recalled the ordeal as “feeling like a roller coaster,” and said he and his wife were praying for a safe outcome for everyone on board.

    The family was on the 777 aircraft when it took off from Kahului Airport in Maui, Hawaii, late last year. The flight came within 775 feet of the ocean, according to data.

    The FAA worked with the airline to investigate, and the pilots involved received additional training. United reaffirmed its commitment to safety after the incident.

    The crew’s response

    On a United Airlines flight on December 18th, 2022, from Hawaii to San Francisco, the plane plunged toward the ocean leaving everyone on board terrified.

    Rod Williams II was traveling with his family when the flight went into a “dramatic nose dive” shortly after takeoff. He told CNN that the plane sank at a “concerning rate” for a few seconds before resuming normal flight.

    The crew quickly responded to the incident. They recruited a fourth pilot who was flying as a passenger, prioritized their work, and kept one another aware of unfolding events.

    The crew was able to save the lives of 185 people on board. But they had a tough time coping with the ordeal.

    The aftermath

    Just after 2pm on Sunday, December 18th, a United flight from Kahului, Hawaii, to San Francisco plunged 1,400 feet and came within 775 feet of the ocean. The aircraft was carrying 273 passengers and 13 crew members.

    The plane began to decelerate at an alarming rate after takeoff, dropping by more than 40 feet per second. One passenger, Rod Williams, told CNN that he was with his wife and two children when the plane went into a sudden nose dive.

    After he reported the incident to the airline, Williams said that his family was comforted by flight attendants. However, he was still concerned about what happened to the plane.

    Despite the harrowing experience, the pilots eventually managed to get their stricken 747 back to Honolulu. Captain Cronin and First Officer Slader were both awarded the Secretary of Transportation’s Award for Heroism, and United Airlines refurbished and returned their Boeing 747 to service.
