The events described in the FlyDubai terrorist incident are just astonishing in sequence that led to the safe recovery of a Boeing 737 as it descended at a rate of speed beyond test limits of the aircraft during an attempted terrorist incident.
The Co-Pilot of the aircraft flying from Dubai to Israel, stabbed the captain with a pocketknife and attempted to destroy the flight controls as the plane began a rapid descent. The captain somehow managed to activate the door locking mechanism unlocking the cabin door just before losing consciousness during the struggle.
A passenger then forcibly entered the cabin, pulled the terrorist away from the controls, pulling him back into the cabin where Israeli passengers took control of him. As the passenger began pulling back on the flight controls trying to stop the descent, two other pilots who were on board -one Russian and one Ukrainian- came forward and took over.
Together the plainclothes pilots were able to recover the aircraft from descent as the tail stabilizing mechanism of the airliner fell apart. The new pilots then executed an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia and all passengers were unharmed.
It really is an amazing story with so many individual events that came together to save the flight from sure disaster. Reading about the events leaves you speechless. These were exceptionally brave, skilled and lucky people all traveling together on just the right flight at just the right moment. The Daily Mail has more on the story HERE.

🇦🇪🇺🇦🇷🇺 A RUSSIAN AND A UKRAINIAN SAVED THE DAY
After much confusion, it turns out a Ukrainian and a Russian pilot were on board the FlyDubai plane.
Both took control of the plane and landed it after the second pilot attacked the captain.
Both are pilots who were flying as…

Israelis unhijacked the plane. They will not mess around.
Do we know if either the Ukrainian or Russian pilots were Islamic? How great it would be if we were shown sensible Moslems who would come to the rescue of a terrorist plot perpetrated by another Moslem.
Turns out that the story that the replacement pilots were Ukrainian and Russian is false. The British are claiming that one of the replacements was British. Oh well, it was a good story.
I read New Zealander (Possibly moved to Uk) and South African( also possibly moved to UK)
Capt Smith the chief pilot who was stabbed, trained in NZ and he was above average
Sensible Hagarenes leave the religion of slavery and oppression. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
You are in a roundabout way trying to apologize for the acts of the Islamic copilot. That’s how it sounds to me.
That is exactly the way I interpreted what Johnny was trying to convey.
The cure for all of em.
Heard a Jerusalem-based journalist interviewed earlier today say that they encountered ZERO Israelis celebrating this incredible feat of heroism — because they so divided and hate Bibi (a la the TDS here) that they have their own BDS and can’t stand any positive events and/or news that might reflect well on him and/or the nation.

I find this incredibly hard to believe after footage surfaces of passengers getting off the plane. What nonsense………..
Of course, this is Bibi’s fault. He made the terrorist do it right?
Not sure where you heard this. I live here. The celebrations were amazing. The memes are still going around about the open miracles that happened. No one can deny the Hand of G-d.
Check Arutz Sheva and YNet News
I also heard that Islam is a religion of peace.
Deceiving and being deceived
It’s a good thing the plane did not do an emergency landing in the U.K. The suspect would have been released on 1 BP bail.

“Truly Incredible…
Retired Navy pilot Matthew ‘Whiz’ Buckley revealed today that the hijacked flydubai flight exceeded its maximum operating speed by a staggering 100 knots while plunging 20,000 feet in just 30 seconds.
But just how extreme is that?
What is 100 knots? It’s exactly 185 km/h (115 mph). This means the Boeing 737 MAX 8 was flying 115 mph OVER its absolute structural red-line limit!
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫: Commercial jets are built tough, but they aren’t fighter jets. Exceeding max speed by this much causes “flutter”—violent aerodynamic vibrations that can literally rip the wings or tail right off the fuselage mid-air.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐥𝐞: Surviving a dive this steep and fast without the airframe snapping apart under the extreme G-forces is virtually unheard of…
Eigenvectors are generally the mathematical tool used to model critical values, such as how much stress an airframe can withstand, beyond which the system becomes unstable, such as wings vibrationg so much they fall off.
It’s good to have favorable eigenvectors.
One should suspect The Almighy is not finished with His purpose.
The eigenvalues give you the frequencies, the eigenvectors the natural modes, but the forces on the airframe give you the stress. If the frequency of the forces is in tune with the natural frequencies of the structure, you can get into a lot of trouble. I am very glad His hand was able to guide the vessel to a safe port, with all souls on board.
To know the purpose of the Almighty is to know his Son.
“For the Lord is good his Mercy is everlasting and his Truth endureth to all generations”
Click here to read the Breitbart article which has the video of the pilot being interviewed by Netanyahu! And click here to read the Gateway Pundit article which has a video of Trump retelling what happened! This is a wonderful story!
“Israeli fighter jets accompanied the aircraft after it entered Israeli airspace…”
That’s the way to get home with honors.
‘Hero’ captain in bloody struggle on terror flight trained in NZ
NZ-trained captain ‘an above average pilot’
Captain Smit Machchhar trained at Mainland Air in Dunedin, with chief executive Philip Kean saying he was an above average pilot.
Machchhar trained with the New Zealand airline for 18 months from 2008 to 2009 and maintained a relationship as a recruitment agent based in India, he told Stuff.
Passengers – reportedly including an off-duty Kiwi pilot – burst into the cockpit and wrestled with the attacker as the plane descended sharply, witnesses said. The jetliner was stabilised and made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.
One of the off-duty pilots was reportedly a New Zealander, with the Aviation Herald saying:
“An Israeli official reported that two other pilots in civil clothes travelling as passengers intervened successfully, these are also the ones shown on the passenger pictures with blood on their shirts. One of the pilots is citizen of South Africa, the other of New Zealand.”

Why was this my initial reaction ? Not everything on fake news is fake news right?
If not for me being there when it happened, I might be more sceptical.
Imagine what got kicked out of the news cycle?
0.o
maybe my BS detector gets a little sensitive whenever Netanyahu is involved because this reveal into who he really is has all but been swept under the rug.
Everything on fake news is fake news.

In the US pilots go through the same TSA checks as the rest of us. Tell me more about this stabbing and what was used.
A passenger said, “… someone had stabbed the pilot with a pocketknife.”
(from https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16173301/British-hero-Flydubai-hijack-jet-jihadist-pilot-stabbed-fellow-crewman-tried-crash-plane.html )
There are people in ‘secure” prisons thar get stabbed by cell mates – using improvised tools.
Imho
Sundance’s article mentions it – a pocket knife.
Did u read the post before commenting?
Just read it was a crash axe – tool that is already in cockpit?
“Congratulations to the GREAT Boeing Company for producing a plane, the 737 Max, that was able to withstand G Forces and Strain far beyond what it was designed and expected to do.
It was an amazing show of precise and powerful structural planning and design.
It is about time that The Boeing Company, which builds, by far, the finest commercial airliners in the sky, was given credit for this airplane’s incredible “genius!”
To Kelly Ortberg, and all of his officers and associates at Boeing, congratulations on a job well done!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Sometimes a miracle is obviously a miracle.
This is one of those times.
Hashem 🙏 🙏🙏
Wow what a miracle. How many feet left before hitting the ground ? Not much. Da*n good pilots to pull that plane out of a dive. 🤯🤩 And quick thinking to unlock the cockpit door !
It was actually the plumber that pulled the yoke up initially to stop the decent… even more miraculous…
Wow.
Wow
Another great movie based on real events is coming soon to theaters near all of us.
Get your facts right. ISRAELIS saved the flight. Or are you another Jew hater?
There is a movie in this. Hollywood gets it and it is a woman pilot stabbed by a white KKK co-pilot, an innocent Iranian aircraft and Wonder Woman was involved. Robert DeNiro saves the day and bursts into tears.
FTA: “The Co-Pilot of the aircraft flying from Dubai to Israel, stabbed the captain with a pocketknife…” How did he have access to a knife? Wasn’t he screened? Or did someone (maintenance or food service) leave it for him? Was he a lone actor or was this a conspiracy?
hi cousin! Mallory Weir here.
It’s good to know that God still fly’s commercial occasionally.
Hahaha… exactly!
only the Jewish part.
Praise God!

if the plane had landed in the USA,,,the ones who stopped the terrorist attack would be arrested by the TSA/FAA/airport police for interfering with an international flight and being in the flight deck
Soooo…. “The government will take care of all your needs…….?”
Once again, the only way to assure YOUR survival is to TAKE CONTROL!
Flying is for the birds.
Who writes this stuff?
The captain was asked by the co-pilot to pray.
4 to 5 minutes later,
the co-pilot utilizes an onboard emergency axe
to strike the captain multiple times.
Then the co-pilot seizes the plane controls and goes in a dive, while also striking the instrument panel.
Meanwhile, the captain makes one last, exasperated, surge to reach the cabin door handle. It worked
Other passengers began entering the cabin of the plane and the co-pilot was neutralized
and the plane controls were pulled back, to get the plane out of an angled decent, nose dive….
Terror occurred,
and more severe terrorist miss action was averted – everyone on board survived.
It was not easy, but the impromptu, last chance, efforts to save lives, were worthwhile. : )
