ORLANDO, Fla. – A flap of a Boeing 737 wing partially broke off Tuesday during a Delta flight from Orlando International Airport to Texas.
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the incident, which took place on Delta Air Lines Flight 1893, carrying 62 passengers and six crew members from Orlando to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
CNN reported that passengers noticed something had partially broken away from the back of the wing.
Video recorded by a passenger shows the flap dangling behind the wing.
Flaps are surfaces on the back of the wing designed to be extended for takeoff and landing.
Delta said after the plane landed “it was observed that a portion of the left wing’s flap was not in place.“
The aircraft has been taken out of service, Delta said.
No one was injured.
