Quote:
Passengers who saw a wheel fall off a plane as it took off did not immediately inform the crew, a report has said.
The accident happened in March on a Flybe flight from Exeter to Newcastle.
The captain returned to Exeter and used the emergency brake and "significant amounts of right rudder" to safely land the plane. No-one was injured.

If you looked out of the window of a plane and saw a wheel falling off during take-off, would you not think it the sort of thing that you should bring to the crew's attention?
What a bizarre story.
