I glanced around and do not find an answer. If I saw that part on my plane, I would alert the crew.

Are you landed safely?
Viki, if the flaps prevent landing they've probably been stuck up there for a couple of days.
If not the flight number, then please post the departure and arrival airports and the time of the flight so my friend can inform the airline.

Do you mean in the air couple of days?

You think?
I expect there was a safe landing or it would have been hard to post this question.

No, I don't think a plain in the air for 2 days. I expect safe landing and forgot to close the question or even the above picture from internet and a curiosity question.
I was wondering if it was a pic from the Internet, but it does say 'delta flight today' so that does make it sound more personal.
It would be good to identify the plane in case the part hasn't been noticed by anyone and causes a serious problem.

I'm sure someone called Delta already. Even without a flight number they can find it out. Maybe a little bit longer.
Delta has about a hundred 757's. From those probably less than 30 were in the air on Saturday.

You could always .... look at the OTHER wing to see if it had the same thing ...
If there was, I wouldn't be too concerned.
The crew should have known about it though. Here's the crew:

I think important is that you landed safely and the crew was informed about it.
We can close the question now and thank the participants.
It seems that is not very clear what it was only by looking at one photo.
