"Passenger Spots Missing Bolts on NYC-Bound Flight, Prompts Cancellation"

A Virgin Atlantic flight from Manchester to New York was canceled after a passenger noticed missing screws on the plane's wing, prompting maintenance checks and reassurances from the airline and Airbus that the aircraft was safe to operate. The passenger, Phil Hardy, filmed an engineer using a screwdriver to tinker with the fasteners, and the flight was ultimately axed to allow for precautionary maintenance checks. The airline apologized for the delay and rebooked passengers on alternate flights to their destination.
