A bizarre incident happened at a Ukrainian airport when a woman decided to take a walk along the wing of a plane.
THE mother-of-two arrived at the airport in Kyiv with her family but made the extraordinary decision to walk along one of the wings of the plane whilst passengers were waiting to disembark.
Opening an emergency exit on the Boeing 737-86N, the woman, who passed drug and alcohol tests, climbed onto the wing sparking major panic among the plane’s crew.
The pilot called for an ambulance, police and border guards.
In a reckless attempt to “get some air” the woman has now got herself banned from flying with Ukraine International Airlines.
The woman, travelling back with her husband and two children back from a holiday in Turkey, could not explain to local police why she had performed the erratic act aside from saying she was “too hot.”
