Delta is currently missing an engine cover of a Delta jet according to a report by WTVF.

On Sunday evening, a flight from Atlanta to Chicago hit some turbulence at the Tennessee line and the plane lost and engine cover in the shaking. The plane was forced into an emergency landing in Nashville, WTVF reported.

No one was hurt in the emergency landing, but the engine cover has not yet been located and could be anywhere between Bradley County and Nashville.
