An engine cowling came loose from a Boeing ($BA (+0.37%) ) airplane of Southwest Airlines ($LUV (+0.96%) ) shortly after take-off in Denver. This caused a collision with the wing, but the plane was able to turn around and land safely in Houston, Texas. On board were approximately 135 passengers. Despite the incident, there were no injuries. The Federal Aviation Administration has initiated an investigation.

I'm looking forward to Airbus with my call, but I'm flying to New York soon ... I've never been so scared of flying. I hope it's an Airbus.
