A Delta Airlines Boeing 757-300, registration N593NW performing flight DL-312 from Detroit,MI to Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA), was climbing through 17,000 feet out of Detroit when the crew donned their oxygen masks due to smoke on the flight deck and decided to divert to Toledo,OH (USA). The crew suspected the smoke was coming from oil off the left hand engine (PW2043). The aircraft landed safely on Toledo's runway 07 about 13 minutes after stopping the climb. The aircraft turned off the runway and stopped on the adjacent taxiway for an inspection by emergency services, then taxied to the apron.

A replacement Boeing 757-300 registration N581NW reached Fort Lauderdale with a delay of 6 hours.

The airline reported the crew diverted to Toledo due to a smokey odour in the cockpit, the cause of which is not yet known.
