A Delta Air Lines flight landed safely after part of its wing flap fell off and landed on the driveway of a North Carolina home.

The incident happened early Wednesday morning, the airline confirmed to Fox News Digital. The Boeing 737-900ER was traveling from Atlanta to Raleigh-Durham with six crew members and 109 passengers on board.

“After the aircraft landed safely, it was observed that a portion of the left wing’s trailing edge flap was not in place. Delta is fully supporting retrieval efforts and will cooperate with investigations as nothing is more important than safety,” a Delta spokesperson said. 

The part separated from the Boeing plane operating as Flight 3247 before it landed at 1:15 a.m. local time on July 2.

“It’s amazing when you consider it’s such a dense neighborhood and people are out all the time,” Susan Reed, who works near the location where the part crashed down, told WRAL. “We really dodged a bullet on this one. Let’s just hope it doesn’t happen again.”
