Southwest Airlines flight makes emergency landing in Denver after engine part falls off Boeing 737 plane
This is now the fourth time a Boeing plane had to divert to Denver for issues so far this year

By Stepheny Price FOXBusiness

A Southwest Airlines flight had to make an emergency stop after an engine part fell off during takeoff from Denver International Airport on Sunday morning.

The Boeing 737-800 plane was headed for William P. Hobby Airport in Houston when the engine cowling fell off and struck the wing flap during takeoff, according to The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

The FAA released a statement Sunday morning saying that the flight returned safely and that an investigation into the incident is ongoing.

"Southwest Airlines Flight 3695 returned safely to Denver International airport around 8:15 a.m. local time on Sunday, April 7, after the crew reported the engine cowling fell off during takeoff and struck the wing flap," the statement read. "The Boeing 737-800 was towed to the gate. The FAA will investigate."

Good grief.  No, I don't see myself taking a trip that requires flying.

I'll stay home. Bridges, aircraft, vessels, trains -- none are safe. They are just now repairing a bridge around here that's over 35 years old.  Inspections?  Who knows.  :shrug:

If this particular plane had been in service for more than a year or two, as is likely, this was a maintenance issue, not a Boeing issue.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Or a maintenance AND pilot issue...pilots are supposed to catch things like open cowling latches, covered pitot tubes, bad tires, etc. during their pre-flight "walk around" of the A/C.

Photos of 737 cowling latches (at the bottom of the cowling): (plus I think the engine manufacturer provides the cowling not Boeing)

Naaah, I looked it up, my error...Boeing makes the engine cowlings (CFM56-7 Series engines currently):

https://www.cfmaeroengines.com/engines/cfm56/

https://planenerd.com/what-engines-are-on-boeing-737/

Boeing upgraded the cowlings/nacelles after a CFM56 engine lost a blade and it made it thru the containment ring in the cowling and took out a window in the plane (1 fatality):
