A flight engine of Delta Airlines caught fire during the take-off, causing the aircraft to make an emergency landing shortly after flying. The incident occurred at Los Angeles International Airport (Lax) when Flight DL446 was going from Los Angeles to Atlanta.
According to the news agency Reuters, the left engine of the aircraft and flames were coming out of the flames. A video of this incident has also surfaced. It shows that the aircraft made emergency landing at the airport safely after circling the air for some time. Teams of emergency services were already stationed on the runway at the time of landing.
US agency is investigating
Thankfully, no passenger or crew member was hurt in this accident. The incident is being investigated by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), so that the exact cause of the engine fire can be detected.
This year another such incident of fire
Surprisingly, this year is the second incident of fire in the Airlines plane in 2025 this year. Earlier on January 1, the DL105 flight, which is an airbus, caught fire in the engine after flying from Atlanta, although no one was injured in that accident. These incidents definitely question the technical security of the airline, although both times the action was averted due to timely action.
