A Cuba-bound plane carrying 20 passengers and several crew members was
forced to land at Miami International Airport shortly after take off
this morning because of an unknown mechanical problem, said Greg Chin,
MIA spokesman.
''An indicator light came on [in the cockpit],'' Chin said.
Passengers were flying on a twin engine Gulfstream plane, which had been
in the air for less than 30 minutes when it was forced to turn back.
''They'll put these passengers on a different plane,'' Chin said. ``It's
undetermined what exactly happened to the plane.''
The Gulfstream plane had taken off at 7:50 a.m. but was forced to land
at 8:20 a.m.
