A slide from a Delta plane, involved in a legal battle against Boeing, was found at the home of a lawyer.

On a recent Friday, during a flight operated by Delta Air Lines, the emergency exit slide on a Boeing aircraft became detached and fell off. This unexpected event caused quite a stir, especially when it was reported that the slide had washed up at the home of a New York attorney who was already suing Boeing.

Jake Bissell-Linsk, a lawyer at a firm that filed a lawsuit against Boeing for the Alaska Airlines door plug blowout, was at his beachfront home on Sunday morning when he noticed a bright yellow object stuck in the rocks. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the missing emergency slide from the Boeing 767-300ER plane that had departed from John F Kennedy International Airport just a few days prior.

Living right on the beach, Bissell-Linsk had a front-row seat to the discovery of the missing slide. "I saw it sitting on the breakers," he said. "I didn't want to touch it, but I was able to get a good look at it." He also mentioned that the slide was a major concern for his firm's case against Boeing, as it highlighted safety issues within the company.

The Delta Air Lines flight, which was en route to Los Angeles, had to turn back to JFK International Airport after receiving an alert about a problem with the right-wing slide and hearing a strange vibration from that area. Fortunately, the plane landed safely and the 138 passengers onboard were unharmed. Delta immediately took the aircraft out of service for a thorough evaluation and stated that they were assisting in the retrieval efforts for the missing slide.

Despite authorities' efforts to locate the missing slide, it wasn't until Sunday afternoon that it was found about six miles away from the airport. Bissell-Linsk, who had taken photos of the slide, contacted Delta and the airline's crew arrived at the scene within a few hours to retrieve it and take it away on a pickup truck.

Bissell-Linsk's firm, Labaton Keller Sucharow, has been representing individuals who bought Boeing common stock during a specific time frame when the company was promoting its safety measures. This recent incident with the emergency slide adds another element to their case.

While Boeing has not yet commented on the incident, authorities and investigators are looking into the matter. Bissell-Linsk believes that the slide should be handed over to those conducting the investigation and has not yet determined if it is relevant to his firm's case.

This unexpected turn of events has caused quite a stir and has brought to light concerns about safety within the aviation industry. As more information is gathered and investigations continue, the safety and well-being of passengers must remain the top priority for both airlines and aircraft manufacturers.
