UAL343 Cabin Pressure Problems CLimbing out of KORD
« on: July 07, 2024, 19:46:42 UTC »
On July 3, UAL343 enroute to KSFO had just departed KORD from runway 28R and was climbing through FL270 when the flight crew requested a descent to 10000 feet because of cabin pressure problems.  They declared an emergency, descended to 10000 feet and then decided to return to KORD.    The Boeing 737-900 landed safely on KORD's runway 27C about 30 minutes later.
