Plane taking Utah Jazz to next away game grounded at SLC Int'l after bird
strike
SALT LAKE CITY — A plane taking off from Salt Lake City International
Airport Tuesday afternoon made an emergency landing after a bird strike.
Delta flight 8944 struck a flock of birds as it was taking off, a Delta
spokesperson told FOX 13. The left engine was shut down, and the pilot made
an emergency landing back at SLC Int'l without incident. No injuries have
been reported.
The Boeing 757 was heading to Memphis, Tennessee, and the Utah Jazz have
confirmed it was a charter flight with the team on board. The Jazz are
scheduled to play the Memphis Grizzlies Wednesday night.
