Recall that Boeing plane that had the escape chute fall off a few days ago?
Authorities searching for emergency slide that fell off Delta plane during flight
April 26 (UPI) -- An emergency slide fell off a Delta Airlines Boeing 767 shortly after takeoff Friday, forcing the plane to return to John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Delta Air Lines Flight 520 turned around about a half-hour after taking off for Los Angeles Friday morning. Pilots aboard the plane reported vibrations and a banging sound not long after takeoff, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
Crews then found an emergency slide from one of the plane's exits had fallen off the aircraft, according to Delta.
All 176 customers and seven crew members exited the plane safely, according to Delta Air Lines. The airline said it substituted another Boeing 767, and passengers were expected to land in Los Angeles three and a half hours behind schedule.
Police were still searching for the missing slide early Friday afternoon.
