NTSB Accident History (2)
| Date | NTSB # | Damage | Highest Injury | Probable Cause |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan 24, 2016 | DCA16CA070 | Substantial | None | the ground crew's misjudgment of the distance between the B767 wingtip and the MD-88 tail. Contributing to the accident was the slushy condition of the ramp which limited the maneuvering space available. |
| Nov 7, 2012 | ENG13IA005 | Unknown | None | The 4th stage turbine blade separation that resulted in an uncontained release of low pressure turbine blade material was Delta Air Lines' repair process for the turbine blades' tip shrouds. It was not possible to identify the part of the repair process that led to the premature wear of the blade's tip shoud and subsequent separation. |
