The plane is flying at an altitude of about 34,000 feet. Suddenly excitement started in the cockpit. Indian pilot Smit Machhar fell on the ground in a bloody state after being stabbed by the co-pilot. But he did not give up even in that situation. Somehow he opened the cockpit door. Then the three passengers jumped. They overpowered the attacker by twisting and tying him with the headphone cable.
Fly Dubai flight FZ 1073 departed Dubai for Tel Aviv on Wednesday morning. This terrible incident happened suddenly in the middle of the sky. It is learned that the three passengers who jumped into the cockpit are Javika Manes, Asaf Rajwan and Yaniv Hayun. All of them are citizens of Israel. When pilot Smit Machar opened the cockpit door while seriously injured, they pounced on the assailants.
One after another sensational information is coming to light after the terrible incident on the Fly Dubai plane. The biggest question was, how did the weapon come into the hands of the attacking Omani co-pilot through the tight security cover? According to a source in the investigators, the weapon was not hidden inside the plane. Instead, Kopate used a 'crash axe' or fire ax to keep the colleague inside the cockpit. It was initially believed that Indian pilot Smit Machhar was stabbed with a knife. But now it is known that it was not a knife but actually a fire ax.
According to International Aviation Regulations, a 'Crash X' is installed on the aircraft during manufacture. Its presence is mandatory in every commercial aircraft. Axes used to be kept in the main cabin of the aircraft, but after the 9/11 attacks, they were moved to the cockpit, so that the axes were close at hand to the pilots.
