Singapore Airlines Plane Hits Deadly Turbulence: What Happened? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Singapore airlines flight en route from London hit a severe turbulence on its way to Singapore. The plane fell 6,000 feet from an altitude of 37,000 feet in a matter of three minutes. The turbulence was caused ten hours after the flight's take-off, and it triggered critical damage to the 200 passengers and crew aboard- with a 73-year-old British man losing his life. The airline has apoligised for the incident, and the Singapore government has initiated an investigation into the matter. Experts, however, are blaming climate change for this event. Experts claim severe turbulence has increased by 55% over the last 40 years, while moderate and slight turbulences have seen an increase by 37% and 17% respectively. Palki Sharma tells you more.

Descending 6,000 feet very rapidly is very dangerous and very alarming. Those passengers were given a second life. It's not yet their final destination.

@veeman1961 26 күн бұрын

The 6000 ft descent is likely the emergency descent by the flight crew to get out of the turbulence that was at 37000 ft. With the speed brakes extended the aircraft can easily descend more than 4000 FEET PER MINUTE in a controlled descent. The turbulence that caused injuries was probably all over in 10 seconds or less at 37000 feet.

@@ramyasawkar7494 It’s pretty straightforward. When u need to go (to the toilets) - just go but the moment you get back, just buckle up. It need not be a super tight fit on the belt but it will stop you from being thrown into the ceiling. Meanwhile the pilots are always doing their best throughout the flight to detect and avoid any turbulence. Considering the millions of flights per year, these really extreme turbulence events are still few and far between.

All credit to the captain of the flight first and then to his assistant crew members for managing the malfunctioning aircraft well enough in turbulent weather conditions and averting what could possibly have been a major catastrophe. The captain deserves official recognition, at least from the airline if not from the government, for his flying competence and abilities, and navigating the aircraft off distress in this untoward incident.

However; by any Lay-Person Human Standards; it must have been a VERY Frightening Experience. Thank Goodness these Incidents R very Rare. So; when the Staffs says "Buckle-Up" your seat belts......"Buckle-Up" your seatbelts! Full-Marks to all the Professionals both in the Air and on the Ground!

I shudder to think what the passengers would’ve gone through! That’s why it is in our best interest to keep the seatbelts on during the entire flight, who knows when the plane might encounter turbulence. The pilot must be appreciated for his careful handling of the situation and landing the plane safely, averting a disaster!
