Midair Alerts Send UAX ExpressJet Plane Back to Airport Twice, Another Hits Bird
It's a bad day for ExpressJet Airlines. Different maintenance alerts forced one of their flights to turn back not once, but twice. At the same time another ExpressJet plans was forced to turn back after a bird strike.

Per http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...elsewhere.html and since both flights were United Express flights, I will send to the United forum while leaving a 30-day re-direct in Travel News for those who wish to come to this story from there.
