May 21 (UPI) -- A Delta Air Lines flight that made an emergency landing in Atlanta in February had no visible oil in its right engine, the National Transportation Safety Board announced on Wednesday.
Delta Flight 876 was heading to South Carolina when it departed the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Feb. 24 but soon after returned for an emergency landing after smoke began filling the aircraft, CBS News reported.
Flight attendants noticed smoke entering the aircraft through a door and all of its vents during takeoff and tried to notify the flight's pilots.
A lead flight attendant told the Federal Aviation Administration the smoke made it impossible to see past the first row of seats on the Boeing 717-200 aircraft.
