United Airlines Flight 433 landed as scheduled at Rogue Valley International Medford Airport in the US state of Oregon on Friday afternoon. During the subsequent inspection, the employees made an astonishing discovery: part of the outer paneling was missing from the underside of the aircraft.

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced an investigation. The plane had apparently flown from Nashville to San Francisco that day and then from there to Oregon. However, airport manager Amber Judd says the plane will probably "stay here for some time"
