The Mail.


An airline crew faced a rebellion when they told passengers they were going to fly on a jet that had lost its wing tip in a runway crash.

The SriLankan Airlines customers had been on the Airbus A340 a day earlier when it sliced through a wing of a stationary British Airways 747 at Heathrow, delaying departure by 24 hours.

Good on 'em. :thup:

Although, had they not been told - how many would have even noticed ?

SriLankan Airlines insisted there was no danger in flying without a wing tip.

It added: "They are purely for aerodynamics and to keep fuel costs to a minimum. There is no impact on safety at all. Safety is our absolute priority."
sla completely right there, but let's not that get in the way of some mass hysteria eh?

Can't expect x hundred passengers to have knowledge of plane physics.....pretty natural to be worried if you're told a piece of the plane is missing.

exactly. and in any case, if it was unsafe do you really think the flight crew would want to risk it, never mind the passengers?

Thing is, heres the 747 it collided with a couple of days later powering out of Heathrow without its winglet.

Didn't crash either tbh.
