A Flybe plane travelling from Southampton to Dublin had to turn back as the pilot of flight suspected some technical fault. The plane had been in the air for around ten minutes before returning to Southampton. Engineers combing the plane on the ground for the source of the fault discovered that it was a bee that had become lodged in an item of instrumentation on the outside of the aircraft. The flight finally embarked for a second time but it was delayed by two hours.
