Delta Air Lines Boeing 737-900ER Wing Flap Believed To Have Fallen Onto Home Driveway In Raleigh
A homeowner in Raleigh, North Carolina, saw an unexpected sight on the morning of Wednesday, July 2. Local news station WRAL reported that police responded to a 911 call at 08:30 about a large piece of debris blocking a driveway, which was later confirmed to be a portion of an aircraft's flap. It is believed that this originated from a Delta Boeing 737-900ER registered as N940DU when operating DL3247 from Atlanta to Raleigh-Durham. While the news release states that the flight landed at… (simpleflying.com) More...

It will be Maintenance... The only question is has the Airline Removed and Reinstalled/Replaced or was this actually installed at the factory... That will be the main thing to determine and I am sure the FAA is already looking at the Log Book(s)
If it's maintenance, what else did they touch recently?
Maintenance is a Broad Statement. That question is pretty much wide open. The Maintenance could have just been a Wheel & Oil Check, A Line Check and not having really been in Maintenance. Hangar Visits are usually where more work gets done because somethings just needs to be done under a Roof... For Example (Jacking, Sheet Metal Work, Electrical Work are all suitable depending on what really needs to be done!)
I would have dragged it into my garage and mounted it on the wall with the road signs and license plates. Finders keepers rules state this is the appropriate course of action.
Not true. Actual rules are you go to jail for interfering with a federal investigation.
The USA is now lawless, a 34-time felon in the White House and detention camps where unbadged masked men put people who are kidnapped off the streets......... why worry about the laws?
Sorry to make this political but the rest of the world is in horror as you rebuild Nazi Germany in the USA and yet make comments about what is against the law.
Yes, go ahead, pick it up and put it on the wall in the garage because it just does not matter anymore.

Apparently you're not sorry for making it political or you would have refrained from typing it. If you want to talk about rebuilding Nazi Germany, look no further than Germany itself. People are now being thrown in jail for having the wrong opinion about their government and there are serious attempts to outright ban opposition political parties. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
Your own government didn't fare too much better during Covid. Your citizens were being detained in actual camps for not wearing a face diaper or for refusing to take a slow-acting lethal injection. Some of your citizens were pelted with rubber bullets just for being outside.
Nobody in America is being "kidnapped off the streets". Criminals are being detained and sent back to their country. I've never heard of kidnappers who abduct people just to send them home.
By the way, Trump hasn't been convicted of anything because no sentencing has occurred (and it never will). Might want to study our laws and constitution before repeating left-wing propaganda.

Donald Trump was found guilty on of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records on 2024-05-30, and was sentenced on 2025-01-10. As of this writing, he is a convicted felon.
He was "sentenced" with an unconditional discharge. Watch what happens with that whole case. It will be thrown out and the "conviction" reversed.
The Judge violated all norms of a criminal trial in a case with no victim, where the jury wasn't required to agree on anything. But because it was Trump, you think that's fine.
Everyone knows it was nothing but theatrics so that the media could keep saying 'Trump is a convicted felon', hoping it would deter people from voting for him.
Well, it didn't work. Not enough Americans gave a shit, because they saw it for what it was. Except for deranged Leftists.

Thank you for admitting that you were incorrect.
"Everyone knows it was nothing but theatrics..."
Respectfully disagree. As a person who followed the case more deeply than Fox News, reading posted transcripts, briefs on both sides, and court decisions, it was far more than theatrics. Charges were⁰ serious and they were not'victimless crimes'. The charges for which he was convicted were the tip of the iceberg.

Who were the victims?
Considering the illegal tax advantage he obtained from his crimes, the taxpayers who were left to shoulder an unfair burden.
When the law is violated, the concept of the rule of law is is a victim
Luckily nobody was hit by the falling debris and for that we must be thankful.
