Flight Engine Cover

Window seats may be the most coveted on a flight, but passengers on an Alaska Airlines flight on Monday would likely argue otherwise as along of a peaceful view of clouds, passengers were greeted with parts of their plane's engine flaking off.

The Mumbai Air Traffic Control (ATC) had contacted the pilots of the Alliance Air flight, which flew from Mumbai to Bhuj without its engine cover on Wednesday, whether any object had fallen off the aircraft after its take-off, an official said.

An Alliance Air flight with 70 on board flew from Mumbai to Gujarat's Bhuj this morning without its engine cover, which fell off on the runway.

Passengers aboard a United Airlines flight from San Francisco to Honolulu had a scary trip over the Pacific Ocean on Tuesday, after the casing around one of the engines ripped apart, officials said.

When crew members of a passenger plane reported sparks coming from an engine while taxiing at an airport in southern China, eight fire trucks responded within minutes. Then they covered the wrong plane with white foam.
