Wild video shows a United Airlines flight suffering a “mechanical issue” at a Florida airport — appearing to teeter forward on the runway as a part of the aircraft spun off, according to authorities and reports.
United Flight 2323 departed from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport and landed at Orlando’s International Airport on Sunday afternoon, a United Airlines spokesperson told The Post.
Upon landing at the airport, the plane experienced a “mechanical issue,” forcing passengers to be transported to the terminal by bus, the spokesperson said.

Alarming footage posted to social media shows the aircraft — carrying 200 passengers and six crew members — lurching forward on the runway seconds after it touched ground.
A small part of the front of the plane, which users speculated was the nose wheel, then appeared to roll off the aircraft and spin into the surrounding field, the clip showed.
No injuries were reported from the chaotic incident, authorities added. The aircraft was cleared from the runway.
A brief ground stop was issued at Orlando International Airport after the plane blocked off the runway, and was later changed to a ground delay, according to Fox10.
There appeared to be no delays at the airport as of Sunday evening, according to FAA data.
It’s not clear what the exact mechanical issue the plane experienced was.
The FAA did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
