Video: Part of Delta Air Lines flight 1893 loses wing flap mid-flight

Passengers on a Delta flight from Orlando to Austin got more turbulence than they paid for Tuesday when a piece of their Boeing 737’s wing flap break off in mid-air.

Video taken by a passenger shows a section of the left wing’s outboard flap dangling loose as the plane during flight. One traveler, Shanila Arif, told CNN the cabin felt shaky even before she looked out and saw the damage. “The lady in front of us opened the window and told us it is broken.”

The aircraft, Delta Flight 1893, landed without further incident. Nobody was hurt. But by the time the wheels touched the tarmac, the damage was clear: a structural piece of the flap had detached from the wing.

"After DL 1893 landed safely and without incident in Austin, it was observed that a portion of the left wing's flap was not in place. The aircraft has been taken out of service for maintenance. We apologize to our customers for their experience as nothing is more important than the safety of our people and customers.", Delta Airlines said in a statement.

'Delta Air Lines flight DL1893, a Boeing 737-832 registered N3740C, landed safely on Runway 18R at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport after the left-hand wing flap became dislodged,' the FAA said in a statement. 'Post-flight inspection revealed the trailing edge of the left wing flap was bent upward. The FAA is investigating.”

Delta pledged to fully cooperate with the FAA investigation.
