Scoot 787 Door Ripped Off
 
Happened at Changai Airport. The aircraft rolled back when chocks were removed had no tug attached but the aerobridge was.
Aircraft was going to maintenance.
Super glue?

A bit of yellow "speed Tape" and you would never know.

Exactly Brian, but Yellow.

The Mythbusters recreated the incident several years ago by trashing a plane and repairing it with duct tape.

Tape a plastic bag around it be good as new!

Lucky she was already *scooting* off for maintenance 🤣

Not bad Rowan, 9 days into the year with the first pun.

Is the repair more complicated with a carbon-fibre structure rather than Aluminium ?

LCC solution - Duct Tape and add an extra row of seats.
