Plane dismantled over lost mobile

Offbeat. Passengers bound for Newcastle Airport were delayed in Spain while their plane was partially dismantled after a traveler dropped his cell phone, which slid out of sight, falling into an air vent.

Passengers were delayed for three hours while the cockpit area and front row of seats was taken apart.
