Footage of a technician repairing an EasyJet plane's engine apparently with duct tape.

The video, captured on November 28 from the inside of the airplane at Amsterdam's airport runaway, shows the man sticking what appears to be duct tape on the engine.

''(During) the flight, the duct tape got slightly loose and rolled backwards due to the speed,'' the filmer later wrote online.

''The pilot checked the fix, via switching on the lights, while the machine was in the air.''

''Whilst disembarking the plane, the turbine that still was moving due to strong winds made a ticking noise.''

''It really seems that the tape was there for mechanical reasons and not just for the looks. Also, it seemed that the flight did not take place at full height,'' he added.

In a statement, EasyJet said: “EasyJet occasionally uses this high speed metallic tape, which is always used in accordance with the approved aircraft manuals and repair processes, and in no way compromises the safety of the aircraft.''

“The safety and wellbeing of passengers and crew is always EasyJet’s priority.”

It has been seen before that easyjet a discount airline has repaired an airplane with duct tape. The company stated that it was purely for cosmetical reasons. On November 28th this happened again, in a flight from Amsterdam to Berlin. The pilot announced a short delay for a minimal technical fix. Then a technician came and removed an already sticked-on duct tape from the engine. He cleaned the engine with alcohol and then used again duct tape to stick two elements of the engine together. The flight the duct tape got slightly loose and rolled backwards due to the speed. The pilot checked the fix, via switching on the lights, while the machine was in the air. Disembarking the plane, the turbine that still was moving due to strong winds made a ticking noise. Referring back to the old statement, it really seems that the tape was there for mechanical reasons and not just for the looks. Also it seemed that the flight did not take place in full hight.
