Rome – Controversy in Italy in the incident of covering the defect in the outer shell of the plane with ‘cello tape’. The reason for the security discussion on the social media was that ITA Airways flight AZ1588, which took off from Cagliari Airport at 7.20 am yesterday and landed at Fiumicino Airport at 8.14 am, was seen with the front part of the plane stuck with tape.

Mauro Pili, the former president of the Sardinia region, who came to Rome on this flight, shared the footage of the taped flight on social media. ‘The aircraft was entered through a closed entrance. Mauro Pili said that no one had noticed anything before the trip. When they arrived at Fiumicino Airport, they realized that they had traveled on a disgracefully patched plane, according to his note.

Some have commented that passengers expect maximum security when paying for a flight ticket and that 99% of passengers would not have boarded that flight if they had seen this sticker before departure.

However, reacting to the controversy, ITA Airways officials said that it always operates by following the safety norms prescribed by the authorities and with utmost respect for passengers and on-board staff members. Damage found in one of the aircraft’s panels required repairs to be temporarily dealt with. This was done in accordance with the conditions approved by the aircraft manufacturer. Officials said that what was stuck on the plane was not cellotape, but a special type of metallic high-speed tape that can withstand temperature changes in emergencies. It is commonly used for aeronautical purposes, ITA Airways officials said.
