Torn Southwest plane takes first flight since emergency landing

The Federal Aviation Administration responded to the incident by mandating that all airlines inspect their older 737s.

Southwest began an inspection voluntarily before the FAA order, resulting in hundreds of delays as 79 planes were checked. Five were found to have similar cracks and were taken out of service.
