The headline in the print version of the NZH about that James May article refers to some kiwi connection (I can't remember how it went, maybe someone could find out and post it). Fuck knows what they are talking about.

Think he is visiting NZ atm, hence the Herald doing a article on him. Pretty sure it ain't a April Fool.

It most likely isn't holding anything on per se - so it isn't quite as a bad as it appears. Still a bit sloppy of the ground crew to miss it and, as with the Brazilian example, potentially very dangerous.

Plane part on farm not ours says Air NZ

Mr Mathews said he gave the part to his cousin Les Mathews, who was an Air New Zealand pilot. His cousin said the part belonged to the airline and it had been missing. [...] But Air New Zealand said last night that the part was "absolutely and categorically not" from one of its planes.
Quote:
Meanwhile, an Air New Zealand flight from Christchurch to Australia carrying 200 passengers was delayed yesterday after a fault was discovered in the tail of the 767-200 aircraft.

Airline spokesman Mark Champion said the plane had been cleared to fly and left for Sydney at 4 pm with about 160 passengers after a replacement part was flown from Auckland.

The problem was in the tail elevator, the horizontal part of the tail that controls the plane's attitude.

The pilot discovered the error when the aircraft was taxiing.
Quote:
[...] piece of titanium alloy track, which holds the wing flaps in place once they are extended for landing, narrowly missed shoppers.

A passenger had seen the part dangling under the wing in Sydney on Saturday and alerted the crew, but Qantas engineers, who are contracted to service Air New Zealand aircraft in Sydney, found nothing amiss.
do pilots these days do a quick visual of check the aircraft themselves? or do they totally rely on engineers to do pre-flight inspections and so long as all the boxes are ticked just jump in the aicraft, check lights and go?
