È decollato poi il delta o è dovuto tornare indietro per controlli?

E' poi decollato in ritardo, ma non è chiaro se fosse ritornato al gate nel frattempo.

Sul sito Delta è presente la seguente dichiarazione

http://news.delta.com/statement-lightning-strike-video

"Today, Delta shared the following statement about a web video that shows lightning striking a Delta aircraft:

Amateur video shows Delta flight 67 on Aug. 18 from Atlanta to Las Vegas incurring a lightning strike while in the takeoff queue. As with any event involving aircraft, Delta is doing a thorough investigation of the circumstances around this flight as safety is always Delta’s top priority.

The Boeing 737-900ER aircraft with 111 customers and six crew members had been dispatched from its departure gate and proceeded to its take-off queue before lightning was occurring at the airfield. This flight, along with others, was holding for departure clearance from air traffic control. Aircraft design allows lightning bolts to be safely redirected. Fuselage structure and industrial-grade insulation acts as super-conductive lightning rod that rechannels lightning around and away from customers and crew and out into the ground via the landing gear."
