He pointed to the Delta plane, which was just a gray lump in the dark.

About a quarter of the engines are from the 200 series that was in the Delta plane.

The new Delta planes will have seats with the same width as the jets that are being replaced.

A key issue was why the Delta plane had strayed 60 miles south of where it should have been.

He said the Delta plane had started to taxi out of the way but was still on the runway when his jet flew over.

The Delta plane, Flight 1605 from Albuquerque, carried 87 people.

But, officials said, the Eastern jet was at a point far down the runway on which the Delta plane landed.

By the time the Delta plane reached that point and turned toward the terminal, it was moving at a relatively slow speed.

They insisted that there was no evidence now to indicate that the alarm malfunctioned in the Delta plane.

The Delta plane did not carry such charts, which are recommended but not required by Government rules.
