Passengers onboard a flight from London Heathrow to Singapore experienced every holiday-maker’s worst nightmare - when the flight hit severe turbulence leaving one British passenger dead, and several others injured. But how rare is this type of turbulence? And should you be concerned about your next flight? We’re joined by commercial airline pilot Mike Davies, alongside former cabin crew Charmaine Davies who says this should serve as a reminder of why passengers should always keep their seatbelts securely fastened.

Media click bait as usual. And they try so hard to link it to "climate change"

@ukmaxi 24 дня назад

It's because a journalist took the flightradar 24 data and didn't understand what they were looking at and ran away with it without first checking or clarifying. Then every other news outlet echoed that believing that was true... Sometimes, the lack of due diligence by some journalists scares me.

@christophery8927 24 дня назад

I still can't believe they serve meals!! They are true aircraft experts, they do so much training and we treat them like sandwich ladies. I feel like they should all be there for safety and passenger control. That may require more staff specfically for food, which means less profit. Maybe. Some flights are like a zoo. Kids running around, people splayed out all over the place. Feet poking out. Seat belts?? Hardly ever worn.

There's never been a plane lost to turbulence itself and cruising altitude. Wake turbulence has caused accidents, but those involved pilot error - like the one out of JFK caused by the co-pilot who overused his rudder pedals and broke the vertical stabilizer off.

It’s the interviewers’ job to ask the simple and obvious questions on behalf of their viewers. Remember, things have to be explained in layman’s terms. In order to do so, however, you must prepare thoroughly. It’s up to the interviewees to provide the answers. For that to happen, interviewers sometimes have to deliberately pretend to misunderstand in order to get a better response. They need to serve as constant reminders that the audience are ordinary people, not experts familiar with jargon.

The first time i ever flew alone at the age of 13 i was flying back home to london from China and my flight took off and after literally five or ten minutes we started being thrown around by turbulence and this carried on and on for around two hours. Even as a child flying without mum and dad for the first this didnt particularly bother me but i remember other people crying. I remember once the cabin crew were released from their seats (once the turbulence stopped) the lady in charge of my care came to make sure i was ok and not scared or freaking out which i just thought was very kind. Once the plane landed i remember sending an email to my friend and her family back in shanghai and they told me that the airport literally closed about 30 mins after i took off because a freak monsoon storm had swept over china. If we hadnt have had seatbelts on injuries could have happened so easily!

I myself have experienced two incidents of clear air turbulence, although not quite to this degree, but enough to mess up a galley, as seen here. I also believe there does exist more turbulence than in the past. I don't remember as much occurring in the 80s as now; I've definitely seen an uptick over the last 15 or 20 years

@osmansiddiqi5852 24 дня назад

The question is also about releasing historic data on turbulence frequency and severity and how that is changing, if at all. You can't on the one hand have extreme weather events occurring everywhere, temperatures already considerably risen speeding up wind, and then expect that there would be no risk to flights. Communicate what the risks are to flights as temperatures rise and how we intend to improve how we fly to navigate those risks. Private companies simply have to be made to have plans around this, otherwise they'll push the risk to us to protect their shareholders.

@ThirstysURL 23 дня назад

As a sim racer i know just how dangerous the slip stream is. It's incredibly powerful braking outside the slip, acceleration in it, and rotation off centres of the cut open air slit. It completely changes how you should drive in order to handle and use it to advantage and most importantly SAFELY.

Bravo to the pilots who handled the sudden disastrous turbulence by diverting and landing safely. They have done a brilliant job having had saved the lives of the passengers and the crews. My deepest condolence to the family who lost their family member. With reference to the clear turbulence, apart from the monsoon season as explained by the guest pilot, in my view there could be another contributing factor which no one is talking about. Singapore Airlines flight SQ321, London Heathrow to Singapore, took off at 10.37pm on Monday 20/05/2024 night . It appears that the Boeing 777-300 encountered CLEAR AIR TURBULENCE over the Bay of Bengal, south of the southern tip of Myanmar. In my view, the clear air turbulence could be the effect of the Mount Ibu VOLCANO eruption in Jakarta, Indonesia on 19/05/2024, because the ATMOSPHERIC AIR DENSITY in the region would have been affected by the VOLCANO eruption.

From Aviation Herald... According to ADS-B data the speed over ground of the aircraft dropped rapidly by about 20 knots prior to starting the (controlled) descent from FL370 to FL310. The data also reveal the aircraft had experienced an altitude deviation of -100/+300 feet about 350nm westnorthwest of Bangkok while enroute at FL370 over Myanmar about 15 minutes earlier.

Do you want one tired pilot on his own in the middle of the night? They are proposing single pilot operations now in the cruise. If the remaining one pilot needs the bathroom then he is to leave the autopilot in and hope an incident doesn’t happen like this with no one in the flight deck. Time to push back and tell the manufacturers and airlines that we don’t want this.

If one pilot goes to the toilet, a fa must be in the flight deck with pilot. At no time is 1 pilot alone in the fd never pass strict faa rules and regulations in the USA

@TOGASRSRWY 24 дня назад

At the moment that is correct. BUT if you read my post I say “they are proposing”. Google Reduced Crew Operations. They are being pushed at this very moment through certification starting with the A350F with the support of airlines and manufacturers. FACT.

Safest form of transport yeah but probably the most terrifying way to go if it goes wrong that far from the ground.

on a flight to rhodes greece from birmingham airport we had to drop 3000 ft we were told before it was going to happen because of the turbulence from the UK

@pauljordan4452 22 дня назад

‘Crude graphic’?! Your marketing department will be having words!! 😂

@julesstone7990 19 дней назад

My twin sister and myself were on the same flight two weeks earlier and we had a fair bit of turbulence and we were glad to get back on the ground. Obviously nothing like this flight but it does make you think!

My first flight was 1964 from Hong Kong to Manila. The flight was like riding the roller coaster. It was think it drop thousands of feet and rise up so fast. I was 15 years old it was so scary 😱😱😱

Not being a great flyer I always have slight trepidation of crossing the Bay of Bengal on the Singapore-Uk flight, now do Melbourne to Uk via Dubai👌

@linhwang6651 23 дня назад

A friend has anxiety about the turbulance. It is dreadful to him. He does not like to encounter it in the holiday flight. Hope the news will not make him more anxious!

@taniabastians281 23 дня назад

I loved the part the pilot said media dramatised it😅..good one...

@jamieleroy4243 11 дней назад

So… considering how many planes must have used that same location, only ONE plane had the crazy turbulence , sounds a bit fishy to me.

@user-hg4sk2hk7h 18 дней назад

Very unfortunate. SQ is my favorite airline. Whenever I get the opportunity to fly with them, I do so. My last flight was in March from New York City to Vietnam and back with a layover in Singapore. I always keep my seatbelt on the entire time I am seated or my bed is in the lie flat position.

@stevena9305 18 дней назад

The principal issue is that a major safety decision (ie; the wearing of a seatbelt at times outside of the light being on) is a ‘request’ to the passengers rather than a mandatory requirement.

@love_music2081 24 дня назад

When on a plane I always think I am in the flying aluminum tube in the life unfriendly environment and hence I can never relax enough to sleep. 😂

Should the SQ321 pilot and co-pilot have their licenses suspended for a while until investigations are completed before being allowed to take flight again?

@mattwoodford1820 18 дней назад

Something not mentioned about the pre-flight safety brief. Regardless of how many times you've flown, if you have recently gone throguht he safety procedures for the aircraft, it will be fresher in your mind should an incident occur. Also, conveniently just before one of the highest risk phases of flight, the take off. Personally I like to count headrests between myself and the exit in front as well as the exit behind so I could find the exit if visibility is poor in the cabin and have another read of the card on the descent

@garybrown5413 23 дня назад

I flew the same path only a week before. We had turbulence which our legs was going side to side. And a few bumps.. but nothing like this flight had. So sad that a man died. Everyone thoughts are with his family. 😢 I will always wear my belt from now on. Maybe the airlines should supply some sort of helmet ⛑️ or cushion above, just a thought. For some people if thay want them.
