A story with a stinginthetail

It’s not unknown for flights to be delayed due to mechanical problems, but to find out that your departure has been postponed because a scorpion was spotted on board is a different matter. On 4 September, a flight from Paris to Glasgow was delayed overnight for that very reason. During the previous flight, a passenger had noticed the scorpion on the plane and reported it to crew. The plane was fumigated upon landing.
