Delta Air Lines Captain Rejects Assigned 757, Requests Another Aircraft

Delta Air Lines flight 466 was delayed a little over an hour on Saturday, August 16th, after the pilot in command refused to fly the jet based on nothing more than his “gut feeling.” The passengers waiting to board applauded the safety-first decision of the captain and co-pilot and were seated in a new jet in short order. The thing is, the jet was cleared to fly and no issues had been found.
