The Federal Aviation Administration says it happened around 5 p.m. Friday.
The FAA says Delta Flight 407 was about 1,400 feet off the ground when the pilot spotted the “unmanned aircraft system.”
The flight landed safely without having to take any evasive action.
A Delta spokeswoman has not immediately responded to a request for comment.
A drone? Does anyone know the size “unmaned aircraft system”? Was it a toy? Was it something more sophisticated?
