United Airlines Flight 63

United Airlines Flight 63 was a commercial flight from Newark to Rome on January 14, 2015. Shortly after takeoff, the aircraft experienced electrical system failures caused by a fire in the aircraft’s auxiliary power unit (APU). This led to the crew shutting down many systems, and they declared an emergency. The pilots then performed an emergency landing back at Newark Airport. The incident resulted in minor injuries to some passengers and crew, and the aircraft was subsequently inspected and repaired. The flight is notable for the crew’s prompt response to the electrical fire and their safe handling of an in-flight emergency.
