The bemused passenger took a quick snap and posted the image to Imgur, where it has been viewed more than 255,000 times.

"I thought it was going to be the 'no person' sign on the turbine. Like yeah, everyone's trying to get in there!" someone commented.
Eventually, confused viewers were given a clue: zoom in to the area at the top left of the engine.
