A Delta Air Lines Boeing 737 experienced a partial detachment of its left wing flap during a flight from Orlando to Austin, Texas, on August 19, 2025. The incident occurred while the aircraft was flying at approximately 12,000 feet. Despite the flap breaking off mid-flight, the plane landed safely with 62 passengers and six crew members on board, and no injuries were reported. Passengers observed the damaged wing flap dangling during the flight, which caused turbulence and concern. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has launched an investigation into the incident. Delta Airlines confirmed the flap was not in place during the flight and apologized for the experience.
