A flight from Shanghai to Guangzhou was delayed after an elderly woman passenger was suspected of throwing coins into the plane’s engine to ensure “good luck”, mainland media reported.
China Southern Airlines Flight 380 was held up at the Shanghai Pudong International Airport after an elderly woman passenger caused a disruption, according to the airline’s official WeChat account. An investigation into the incident is under way.
Plane mechanics later found nine coins at the site, including one inside the engine. The captain was quoted as saying the metal, if sucked up by the engine, could have caused serious damage, including failure.
I wish elderly women would put coins in me for luck

its bad luck to ride in a plane with no name. so she decided to give the plane a name like all asians name their kids. by throwing change into something metal.

So are most Europeans, Mr. Hidden Flag.

This could actually work.

She meant no harm. Was it dumb? Definitely. Would have killed everyone? You bet your ass it would.

Usually nobody. That's why there are always plenty of coins there. I suppose someone desperate might pick up a few but it's clear they rarely get wiped out.
Michael Hill
severely underrated

I've never heard of this before, does it really give good luck?
Jason Robinson
Kek. I'll name it "chinky chong".

>but does it really give good luck Yes. You can also fill your exhaust pipes with (glued) coins for extra mileage.

Hahaha, it's probably the only way they'd go out of their way to get their kids something nice...by spending other people's money.

Only the best chinks immigrate to the west, chinks in asia are mostly retarded.
Asher Cruz
Right but it's not like you want it to happen on purpose. Better to find the problem before lifting off. The engine failure could cause a fire that spreads.

I'm way too lazy to find the sauce, but this happened at some Asian nuclear reactor.

Funny thing, diesel engines sometimes suffer from something called "runaway engine".
The engine locks into high RPM and even if you try to turn off the engine or cut the diesel supply, the engine keeps going until it blow out.
The only thing that can make the engine stop is by choking the engine (cutting the supply of air) or a more drastic and expensive way, throw anything solit at the turbo inlet to make the turbo break, halting the engine.
If she had done that on a runanway engine, she would had saved a lot of money to the owner. Too bad she did it to an air plane.
Parker Ross
You do realize there is a difference between wealthy Western immigrant chinks and homeland chinks, right? Also, they are notorious for cheating on standardized tests.
Robert Hernandez
Wait how? How did she even get close to the engines? Fucking Chinese are so stupid everytime.
Kayden Thomas
>cut the diesel supply >the engine keeps going How the fuck does an internal combustion engine work without fuel?
David Morales
Ching chang chong: the sounds the coins would make rattling around the engine before it exploded at 30,000 feet. Also means "good luck" in chinese.

The oil used to lube the piston is located in the sump just below the engine block.
The rise on temperature makes that oil evapore upwards to the chamber. THis makes the RPM locks high producing more head, evaporaing more lube oil. The cicle dont stops until you flood the engine with CO2 (choke) or just destroy the turbo.
There is no other way around it.
Jordan Ortiz
I bet they cheated on the IQ tests too. Just give up cumskin.

It runs to destruction off the oil in the crankcase. Try putting an extra quart or two of oil in your mom's diesel. Turbo or non turbo.
Jacob Edwards
It would stop eventually on its own because of the law of conservation of energy.
Henry Butler
Not before the engine block explode because of the catastrophic sudden rise on vibration and temperature.
Engines where not made to sustain redline-tier RPMs for more than a few seconds.
Julian Collins
Which would stop the engine.
Thomas Carter
If small coins are enough to cause a plane's engine to fail, I doubt we should be worrying about the old lady's stupidity...
Luke Perry
Such wonderful diversity
James Gonzalez
So your solution to stop the engine of exploding is lettign explode?
Henry Lee
I used to work on the ramp, the smallest bit of debris will btfo out of those engines. Senile bitches shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the things while they're spooled up
Christopher Harris
Yeah. Just buy a new one. Duh.
James Jenkins
>It runs to destruction off the oil in the crankcase That matter was closed long time ago >Try putting an extra quart or two of oil in your mom's diesel Didn't fall for the diesel jew. Way back when diesel was half the price of petrol I didn't have yearly mileage to offset the higher costs of buying, registering, maintenance and possible repairs over a petrol engined car.
Ryder Kelly
coins are absolutely enough to destroy a jet engine, even a small bird (the size of your hand or smaller) will do it. the turbine is designed to rotate on a certain axis, if you introduce oscillations the blades will break apart and you will have a very big problem on your hands.
Jonathan Roberts
There's a reason airports go to great lengths to shoo birds off
Eli Wilson
This is what happens when you let third world scum into European countries. Sort your shit out France. Of course chunks of metal being thrown into an engine can cause failure. Metal shavings can cause failure in a fucking car engine.
Bentley Torres
A zipper handle is enough, everything about a plane is fragile and anything remotely suspected of causing damage will cause a delay. Bump the plane, tip, shift, etc, all can cause a delay....equipment isn't even supposed to make contact with the plane at all
Ian Murphy
very underrated. here's a well deserved (you)

>A zipper handle is enough finding that would be a fun job.

Not as bad as finding a handful of change, when you dont know how many coins were in that handful.
