Delta Air Lines flight 520 from New York JFK to Los Angeles had a piece of the aircraft fall off during climb out this morning, with emergency equipment meeting the flight on arrival. Delta substituted another Boeing 767, and passengers were sent on their way - expected to land in Los Angeles three and a half hours late.
All I know right now is I’ve seen a ton of stories lately about different Boeing failures and can’t think of a single such story about an Airbus failure. The only thing that pops into mind in general about Airbus is that one really big plane they were making kept getting delayed, which from my perspective actually sounds good because it’s a sign they might not be cutting corners like Boeing seems to be.
