Greetings from VS 22, which has just returned to IAD after takeoff. There was excessive vibration during ascent, and the pilot commented that after fire crews had examined the plane on the runway, he'd shut down the no. 1 engine.

The landing was normal in attack and deceleration, and the crew very professional. All on board are calm and jovial. We are still on board parked at gate awaiting word from engineering.

We are delighted that the decision to return to IAD and inspect the aircraft was made so quickly--we don't mind any delay in the interest of safety.

Oh dear, sorry to hear about the delay/cancellation, but glad to hear that all are safe and sound.

Can I just say, you are a model pax, dealing with disruptions so calmly and in an understanding manner. Hope you will be on your way before long.
