Frontier Airlines Passengers 'Jumping Up,' 'Yelling Stop' as Engine Piece Detaches on Take Off

Passengers on board a flight from Las Vegas to Tampa, Florida, on Friday were in for a scare when a section of their plane’s engine broke off during take off, forcing an emergency landing.
According to a spokesperson for Frontier Airlines, during a flight on Nov. 30, a piece of the engine cover, identified as the “cowling,” came “loose and separated from the aircraft.”
Some passengers on board the aircraft were understandably in a state of panic after seeing the piece detach. Brandon Rittiman, who’s Twitter bio says he is a special projects reporter for ABC 10 Sacramento, tweeted a photo of the plane’s engine provided by his friend CJ Gunnerson, who was on the flight when the incident occurred.
Gunnerson told him “the hatch came up and ripped off during take off,” and that people were “jumping up screaming, slamming on the roof. Yelling stop,” Rittiman says.
