HONOLULU -- Several people thought they saw a 747 flying dangerously low in Waikiki Saturday morning, but the Federal Aviation Administration said its initial investigation doesn't correspond with those claims.

Several residents told KITV 4 News a China Airlines jumbo jet flew 30 feet from the Century Center high-rise.

FAA officials said the jet was probably not as close as the witnesses thought.

When there are Kona winds, planes come in just off Waikiki on their final approach to Honolulu International Airport.

The FAA said the China Airlines plane was off course, about 1 mile farther inland than normal.

China Airline's sales manager James Tsaur said he spoke with the pilot who said he was at 1,300 feet. Tsaur said everything was within limitations and he is not aware of any violations.
