Was it these which were taken out of service because of wing spars snapping?

Apparently the guy thought about it for a second then remembered the plane hadn't actually flown for 15 years.

Perhaps this incident will make them think about doing that - certainly better than just running it up and down a runway - its a plane ffs!
