Boeing plane makes emergency landing at Sea-Tac
The plane dumped fuel over Puget Sound before landing

SEATAC, Wash. - A Boeing 777 has returned to Seattle-Tacoma
International Airport, following reports that flames shot out of one
of its engines.

Airport spokesman Perry Cooper says the Asiana Airlines Flight 271,
headed to Seoul, turned around soon after takeoff Wednesday afternoon.
Witnesses on the ground reported hearing explosions.

Cooper says it's unclear what might have caused the flames. The plane
dumped fuel over Puget Sound before landing.
