A Denver bound plane had to turn around after part of it’s engine fell off

Like on your car, sometimes parts malfunction and need repairing. However, when it’s the engine of an airplane carrying over a hundred people it catches your eye a bit…

United Airlines plane headed to Denver International Airport had to turn back to a Connecticut airport Thursday (June 20) after a piece of lining from an engine cover fell off during takeoff.

A United spokesperson said a portion of the Airbus A320 jetliner’s engine sound-dampening outer liner was found on the runway at Bradley International Airport near Hartford.

The Federal Aviation Administration said it would investigate the incident.

Luckily no one was hurt, but I bet those passengers are a little more nervous on the next flight they take!
