Israel Dubai Flight: The flydubai flight reached Israel safely after a courageous passenger and crew foiled an Omani co-pilot's alleged attempt to crash the aircraft. Many, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu, have praised the Indian pilot of Flight FZ1073, Smit Machchhar, for his heroic courage, as he prevented the plane from crashing after his co-pilot stabbed him and allegedly tried to take control of the aircraft during a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv. Despite his grave injuries, Machchhar managed to open the cockpit door and alerted the crew about his co-pilot's horrific mid-air attempt to crash the plane carrying 174 passengers, including 27 children and six crew members. He is recovering in a hospital in Saudi Arabia's Tabuk, where his flight was diverted after he issued an emergency signal. But Machchhar is just one of several people called heroes for managing to wrest control of the plane from the attacker without caring about their own lives, according to Israeli officials, who also provided much of the detail on how events played out inside the steeply descending plane. #flydubaiflight #FlydubaiFZ1073 #DubaiTelAvivFlight #Flydubai #flydubaiflight #dubaiflight #FlydubaiFlightIncident #FlydubaiFZ1073 #DubaiTelAvivFlight About NDTV (English news channel): NDTV is India's Most-Trusted News Broadcaster with the latest updates in news, sports, entertainment and much more from within India and around the world.
