An Air Pacific jetliner made a safe emergency landing after returning to Los Angeles International Airport shortly after take-off.
Airport police Sgt. Daniel Vaughn says the Boeing 747, carrying 441 passengers and crew, landed just before 2:30 a.m. Friday.
The Federal Aviation Administration says Flight 811 was heading to the Fiji Islands when it had to return because of a reported "fuel transfer problem." There were no details.
The police sergeant, however, says a report indicated the plane was overweight.
Neither official could immediately say whether the passengers were still at the airport or had taken other flights.
No LAX flights were disrupted.
