Plane blown away from airbridge

Tuesday, 12 Aug, 2008 0

A video, now removed from You Tube shows a Pacific Blue plane blowing away from an airbridge as passengers were getting off the aircraft at Wellington Airport.

The incident happened in June but details about the incident have only just been revealed.

The video shows a big gap between the Boeing 737, which had 180 passengers on board, and a drop of about three metres to the ground.

The MetService said winds at the time were gusting at 42 knots, or 78km per hour.

No one was hurt in the incident and the Civil Aviation Authority is investigating.

Unfortunately, the video has been removed from You Tube!
