Delta Jet Departing To London From World's Busiest Airport Makes Emergency Landing Wednesday After Smoke Seen Pouring From Engines
A Delta jet departing from the world's busiest airport made an emergency landing Wednesday after smoke was seen pouring from one of the plane's engines. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport tweeted that "after 6pm, smoke was reported coming from the engine of a departing aircraft." The plane, which was departing for London, "immediately returned" and Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) officials "hosed down the aircraft's smoking engine." The plane was towed back to the concourse with passengers aboard, the airport said. No injuries have been reported.
