A plane was forced to abort taking off from Las Vegas on Monday due to engine troubles. A video of Delta Airlines Flight DL77 shows heavy clouds of black smoke billowing from the underside of the Atlanta-bound aircraft as it taxied along the runway at Harry Reid International Airport, the New York Post reports. There were no reported injuries, with nine crew members and more than 260 passengers then towed back to the gate where they were then delayed for several hours. “Emergency personnel inspected the aircraft on the runway and determined that ignited fuel exited the engine as designed,” Delta said. “The aircraft will undergo inspection and maintenance.” The plane eventually landed in Atlanta at roughly 3.23 a.m. on Tuesday, according to flight tracking data.
