EMERGENCY SLIDE FALLS OFF BOEING PLANE, FORCING LA-BOUND DELTA FLIGHT TO RETURN
TO JFK

By Larry Celona

An emergency slide fell off a Delta plane while it was in the air Friday morning
— forcing the Los Angeles-bound flight to return to JFK Airport, sources told
The Post.

The freak accident set off an emergency alarm around 8:30 a.m. aboard Flight
520, which had departed the Queens airport an hour earlier, sources said.

The crew — who had reported a vibration, according to the FAA — had no choice
but to return to JFK, on runway 22L, according to the sources. 

Cops were still searching for the missing chute early Friday afternoon and
sources said it’s believed it could be in Jamaica Bay.
