Passengers on Mexican budget carrier VivaAerobus were alarmed to see what appeared to be a gaping hole above one of the engines on a domestic flight from Monterrey to Tampico last week.
One passenger filmed the makeshift repair out his window and posted a clip to YouTube saying: “Some people take very seriously the saying that the duct tape fixes everything” (translated).
The airline has released a statement saying it “deeply regrets” the situation and the unease it caused passengers.
