The National Transportation Safety Board says it plans to investigate the problem that forced an unannounced landing on Barack Obama's campaign plane. The Midwest airlines charter jet landed in Saint Louis after the crew reported having trouble keeping the nose up following takeoff from Chicago to Charlotte, North Carolina. The airline said flight safety was never threatened, and no one was hurt.

"Obviously when a pilot says that we may have some problems in landing, people are concerned," said Obama.

The presumptive nominee of the Democratic party was expected to give a speech on the economy before the delay. Meantime, at a rally in Denver, Republican candidate John Mccain is also talking about the economy, blaming congress and the administration for slower economic times.
