American Airlines Boeing jet makes forceful return to Chicago after mid-air emergency

American Airlines Boeing jet 737-800 flew back to its origin airport after the indicators of multiple door warning lights went off, as per the data collected by FlightRadar24. American Airlines said the short flight duration of Flight AA1047 happened probably because of a “possible maintenance issue.” The flight had earlier departed just after 8 am local time and came back to Chicago by 10 am, as per FlightAware.
