July 31 1973 / fromthearchive / Charles Dixon, Globe Staff / A rescue worker stands next to the section of charred fuselage of the wrecked Delta jet while other planes prepare to take off. The flight that preceded Flight 723 made a successful approach and landed on runway 4R and the two flights that followed Flight 723, without knowledge of the accident, abandoned their approaches at the decision height because of weather. Those flights both landed safely in Providence, RI.
