"Passenger's Observation Leads to Cancellation of Virgin Atlantic Flight"

A Virgin Atlantic flight from Manchester to NYC was canceled after a passenger noticed missing bolts on a wing panel, prompting precautionary maintenance checks. While the missing bolts were not a safety concern, the airline rebooked passengers on alternative flights. This incident follows a federal investigation into a Boeing 737 Max 9 after a door plug fell off mid-flight, prompting the FAA to ground all Boeing 737 Max 9 planes for a new inspection and maintenance process.
