A Boeing 737 with 19 people aboard crash-landed at an airport in the Aleutian Islands community of Dutch Harbor, but only minor injuries were reported, the Federal Aviation Administration said. The plane, a MarkAir Flight 71, which was landing from Anchorage about 1:30 p.m., slid off the runway when its landing gear apparently folded, said Gloria Moody, an FAA spokeswoman in Anchorage.
