DENVER — A Delta plane had visible damage to its nose from a mechanical issue, but landed safely at its destination in Denver on Monday, the airline confirmed. A new aircraft, an Airbus A319, will fly customers who are on flight DL2362 to Salt Lake City from Denver on Monday evening. That flight has been delayed by four and a half hours, Delta said.
