Not everything wanted to visit MCO

[SKC]

Shortly after departure, the engine cowl (inboard & outboard) decided they would prefer to stay in ATL. This is one of the Ryan Intl A320s (N951LF) that are operated under the Air Tran colors.

Nasty, nasty, nasty...

"MTC, you got some 'splainin' to do!"

I bet the entire port side of the cabin is soaked in urine.

Good job to the pilots for bringing her in okay.

I believe they've found the outboard cowl, but the other is still missing in action. From what I've heard is that on the cowl that was found, the locks/latches were still in one piece, indicating that they weren't locked prior to departure.

Luckily they were only a few miles out of ATL.

"Lucy! You got some 'splaining to do!"

What's that picture inside the engine on the last pic?

 

[SKC]

I don't believe it's a picture, but rather some type of equipment. Can't really tell.

Is Ryan doing MCO now? I thought they only did west coast stuff for AirTran.

When the A320s went online for AT, we ran ATL-LAS/LAX and thrice daily MCO (one being an overnight). When SFO started, it dropped to two round trips per day.
