A Flydubai plane signaled an emergency and made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia after a fight broke out between the pilots during the flight.
MOSCOW, September 30 - RIA Novosti. The pilots who were able to take control of the Flydubai board and land the plane safely are citizens of South Africa and New Zealand, says Guy Azriel, a journalist for the Israeli TV channel i24News.
On Wednesday morning, a Flydubai plane signaled an emergency and some time later made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. The initial version heard in many media was a possible hijacking or hijacking of the plane, but after landing this version was ruled out. The airline later confirmed that the plane landed safely in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, noting that a fight broke out between the pilots during the flight.
“The two other pilots who were on board the plane and landed the plane safely are citizens of South Africa and New Zealand,” the journalist wrote on the social network X.
