Cerfia reported that Smit Machchhar, an Indian pilot for FlyDubai for 17 years, had been stabbed in the head and seriously injured in the arm by his co-pilot in mid-flight. He said he realized, feeling the movements of the aircraft, that the plane was falling, before collapsing to the ground. According to Cerfia, Machchhar had managed to get up and open the cockpit door, allowing Israeli passengers to subdue the co-pilot. The plane had then lost more than 4,200 meters of altitude in 30 seconds. The pilot explained that he was trying to save himself while knowing he could not let the passengers die. Cerfia added that Narendra Modi and Benjamin Netanyahu had praised the captain. After an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia, Machchhar had been transferred to a hospital in the United Arab Emirates, where he continued his recovery, according to the account reported by Fox News. #PilotHero #AviationSafety #FlightIncident (translated)
