The Civil Aviation Authority has launched a "desktop investigation" after a Pacific Blue Boeing 737 was blown away from a boarding gate at Wellington Airport.

The incident happened in June, shortly after passengers disembarked the plane, and was caught by an airport CCTV camera.

The footage was then posted on the website liveleak.com (see below) and shows airport workers running for cover as the plane moves away from the boarding gate.
