A Delta Air Lines flight from Tucson to Atlanta returned to TIA this afternoon after a mechanical issue arose.
"Delta flight 937 returned to Tucson shortly after takeoff following indication of a mechanical issue with the aircraftâs left engine," a Delta statement said.
The plane landed about 1:15 p.m. without incident, and passengers are being taken on a different aircraft, the statement said.Â
The Tucson Airport Authority Fire Department deployed in case of problems when the Boeing 737-900 landed. The airport remained fully operational, TAA said in a statement.Â
Delta flies daily from Atlanta to Tucson and then back to Atlanta. It was the return flight to Atlanta that suffered the issue Monday.Â
