Remarks: The Houston Fire Department had to be called because the aircraft had a lot of smoke spewing from the #1 engine upon startup. It was later determined it was just an excessive amount of oil being burned off. The plane departed about an hour later.
Remarks: Caught in the middle of passing thunderstorms. This 717 came back to the gate with an elevator issue. In the background, sister 737 from Southwest in on final approach, ILS on runway 4.
