Fly Dubai pilot recalls cockpit ordeal
Fly Dubai's flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv on September 30, 2026, was diverted due to an attack inside the cockpit, which resulted in injuries to the Indian pilot, Somet Machehar, and his assistant. This led to an emergency landing at Tabuk Airport in Saudi Arabia. The pilot revealed that he resisted and attempted to regain control of the aircraft despite sustaining serious injuries, enabling the crew to take back control before a safe landing. Emirati and Saudi investigations are examining the motives behind the incident, with Israeli investigators participating. There are concerns that the attack may be linked to a terrorist act or premeditated planning. The incident has reignited discussions about cockpit security and internal threats, with the Indian Prime Minister praising the pilot's quick response, which helped save the passengers.
