Missing Screws! Passenger Spots SERIOUS Problem on Wing

What the heck is going on with airlines these days?

Imagine that for one second.

Looking out the window of your plane and noticing a row of screws on the plane’s wing has an unusual pattern. All silver screws then followed by black holes.

Lucikly one passenger had a keen eye and spotted the section of missing screws before take off.

DEI hires strike again?

I told you in my article about the TSA that I’m no fan of flying in this current climate.

Stories like this don’t do anything to help change my mind.

The NY Post reports:

A New York-bound Virgin Atlantic flight was canceled just moments before takeoff last week when an alarmed passenger said he spotted several screws missing from the plane’s wing.

British traveler Phil Hardy, 41, was onboard Flight VS127 at Manchester Airport in the UK on Jan. 15 when he noticed the four missing fasteners during a safety briefing for passengers and decided to alert the cabin crew.

“I’m a good flyer, but my partner was not loving the information I was telling her and starting to panic, and I was trying to put her mind at rest as much as I could,” Hardy told the Kennedy News agency of the moment he spotted the missing fixings.

“I thought it was best to mention it to a flight attendant to be on the safe side.”

Here’s a few photos of the problem wing:

Here’s a glance back at what used to be, what was stolen from us:

Now its trannies and a small bag of peanuts:

How far we’ve fallen.

So next time you go flying, bring your tool box and duct tape.

You’ll thank me.

Come to think of it, you might want to also bring a parachute. And an inflatable raft if your flight is international.

Hey, it worked for Indiana Jones in Temple of Doom.
