In a statement to Channel 2 Action News, the airlines said the crew on Delta Flight 2728 from Savannah to Atlanta noticed a “misalignment of some flaps on the aircraft” as it was coming in for a landing.
Delta said, “This is an uncommon occurrence but is a part of extensive flight crew training to manage through safely.”
The flight landed safely and managed to get to its gate a minute early, the airline said.
“Nothing is more important than the safety of our customers and people,” Delta said.
