Air China passenger films "loose screws" on plane wing

A horrified airline passenger filmed as screws on the wing of the plane he was in went wild while flying at 35,000 feet.

On the scene, one of the screws fixing a fare on the Air China flight has already disappeared while others are so loose that they click in their holes.

The images emerged from Air China Flight 1921 from Beijing to Hengyang on Thursday, July 7.

The terrified passenger uploaded the shocking images to Chinese social media site Weibo where they spread like wildfire.

Air China was forced to issue a statement in an attempt to reassure customers.
