ATLANTA - Delta Air Lines jets encountered four major incidents within 48 hours last week, including one involving Atlanta's airport.
In one incident, an engine on a flight from West Palm Beach to Boston caught fire shortly after takeoff. The engine was repaired, and the aircraft operated the same flight later that evening.
That same day, a flight from Boston to San Francisco had to reverse course mid-flight due to a failed engine.
On Friday, a Delta plane flying from Atlanta to San Francisco lost its right-hand engine due to a loss of oil and was diverted to Salt Lake City.
On the same day, a Delta flight from New York to Berlin experienced a problem with its anti-skid brakes but landed safely. No one was hurt in these incidents.
Delta Air Lines is based in Atlanta.
