Drunk man causes flight delay in city


Online Travel Vietnam: A Vietnam Airlines flight numbered VN1600 was delayed three hours for safety checks after an unidentified man was struck by its propeller at Buon Ma Thuot airport in the eponymous central highlands city on Saturday evening.

 
 
According to the airport officials, when the airplane was preparing to fly to Hanoi, a man suddenly jumped over the airport barrier and run towards the right engine of the plane.

The man, who was later identified as 30-year-old Luong Van Man, was then sucked up directly towards the rotating fan blades.

However, he only sustained minor injuries after the captain timely turned off the engine and reported the incident to the airport security staff who later confirmed Man was drunk.
