Delta Air Lines Flight 1080
Since 1977
Delta Air Lines Flight 1080 was a scheduled flight from San Diego, California, to Atlanta, Georgia, notable for the incident that occurred on April 12, 1977, during the San Diego to Los Angeles leg of the flight. Unbeknownst to the crew, the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar's left elevator had become stuck in a fully upwards position. This led to the aircraft pitching up aggressively and causing the aircraft to lose speed and nearly stall.
