ATLANTA (CNN) - A Delta Airlines jet veered off a taxiway this morning at Atlanta's airport. The airline's spokesman says mechanics were testing the engines of a Boeing 737-700 and experienced a problem with the braking system.

There were no passengers on board and there were no injuries. The plane did have significant damage, however.

The FAA says this accident isn't having an impact on planes landing or taking off from the airport.
