An American Airlines Boeing 737-800, registration N880NN performing flight
AA-2752 from Dallas Forth Worth,TX to Washington National,DC (USA), was climbing out of Dallas when the crew stopped the climb at FL260 due to a left hand engine (CFM56) oil filter bypass indication. The crew declared emergency, requested "light turns" - the controller misunderstood and asked which runway lights should be turned up, the crew then explained they wanted "wide" turns - and landed safely on Dallas Ft. Worth's runway 35L about 65 minutes after departure.
A replacement Boeing 737-800 registration N870NN reached Washington with a delay of about 5:45 hours, however, had to divert to Washington Dulles,DC (USA) airport.
The occurrence aircraft is still on the ground in Dallas about 36 hours after landing back.
