A 76-year-old Chinese woman has been arrested in the eastern city of Anqing after she was spotted tossing coins at the engine of her plane in hopes of ensuring a safe flight.
The incident was the second such report this year of a safety scare caused by a “coin-tossing elderly Chinese,” according to the South China Morning Post.
The Kunming-bound flight was grounded overnight for safety checks, with the lady throwing the money despite the already portentous name of the carrier – she was flying with Hainan Airlines offshoot Lucky Air.
