Imagine sitting inside a plane only to watch the engine cover fall off mid-air!


In a video doing rounds online, a Frontier Airlines flight from Las Vegas to Florida had to return to Las Vegas Friday morning after a portion of the engine cover blew off during takeoff. Luckily, no one was harmed and the plane landed safely at Las Vegas’ McCarran International Airport.


"During takeoff on Frontier flight 260 from Las Vegas to Tampa this morning, a section of an engine cover called a cowling came loose and separated from the aircraft,"  a Frontier Airlines representative told Business Insider.

 

Another passenger said there was a riot-like situation inside the plane and people were jumping, screaming and running. As per reports, a huge metal cover was ripped from the plane, leaving the engine exposed.
