Now Qatar Airways flight hit by air turbulence, 12 injured | Live Updates, Unveiling the Latest India News Trends


Dublin Airport Authority said that a Qatar Airways flight from Doha to Ireland was hit by severe air turbulence, injuring 12 people on board. However, the plane landed on time and safely. This Doha-Dublin flight QR017 landed at Dublin Airport just before 1 pm local time. The flight was a Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft. Emergency services, airport police and fire and rescue department personnel were present at the time of landing. Those injured due to air turbulence include 6 passengers and 6 crew members. It is worth noting that last week a passenger died and 30 others were injured when a Singapore Airlines flight from London to Singapore was hit by a severe storm.

Singapore Airlines flight SQ321, which took off from London's Heathrow Airport to Singapore's Changi Airport last Monday, encountered air turbulence on the way. Following this, the 777-300 ER aircraft made an emergency landing at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi International Airport last Tuesday afternoon. However, by then one tourist had lost his life. There were 211 passengers and 18 crew members on board the plane. It is worth noting that when stormy winds hit the wings of a flying plane, air turbulence is created in the plane, due to which the plane starts moving up and down and the people on board start feeling jolts. Lightning and cloudy weather can also cause air turbulence. Some turbulence is severe, during which the jolt can cause a panic attack to the passenger, which can lead to death. There is also a risk of the passenger falling into the cockpit if the seat belt is not fastened during air turbulence.
