Plane lands with cracked windscreen and damaged nose

Sunday, 10 Aug, 2015 0

A Delta Airlines plane made an emergency landing after hail cracked the windscreen and damaged the nose.

The flight, carrying 125 passengers en route to Boston from Salt Lake City on Friday, was hit by severe turbulence, hail and lightning, causing both windshields to crack and the weather radar to fail.

It diverted to Denver airport and the crew requested an instrument landing system approach due to the lack of visibility through the windshield.

The plane landed safely with no reported injuries.
