British man dies during turbulence on Singapore Airlines flight | BBC News

Authorities at Bangkok airport have said a 73-year-old British man died on a Singapore Airlines flight, "likely" from a heart attack.
Bangkok airport added that seven people are in a critical condition following turbulence on the London to Singapore flight, and twenty-three other passengers have been injured, as well as nine crew members.
Authorities in Thailand said that the man was travelling with his wife, who has also been admitted to a hospital in Bangkok.
Singapore Airlines says it "offers its deepest condolences to the family of the deceased".

    I’m a 777 pilot. 3 things. As I always say in my PA’s, wear your seatbelts at all times when seated! Actually watch the safety video/brief, you never know when it may become useful. Why people think it’s ok to look cool and ignore it is beyond me. Even though I know the procedures in my airline it’s courteous to crew, and every airline and aircraft type have slightly different procedures. And, if nothing else, this shows just how well built 777’s and all commercial aircraft are. If you’re afraid of flying, never forget that no modern jet has crashed just due to turbulence, no matter how severe.

Those graphs the bbc and media are showing, I would guess show their initial descent towards the diversion to Bangkok and are nothing to do with the actual event. It really irritates me when the media throw out headlines without actually taloking to people who are experts, despite them saying ‘according to experts!’. I would guess the actual altitude change due to the turbulence wouldn’t have been more than a couple of hundred feet.

    Some food for thought from a retired long haul airline captain: 1. Always try to keep your seatbelt on when seated. 2. Hard to predict clear air turbulence does happen, but is usually well reported, by weather briefings, air traffic control and other crews, informing about the airway, flight levels affected and expected intensity. 3. Flying close to storms is sometimes unavoidable, but ample warning is usually given to the cabin crew and passengers. 4. Not very often, the column of a cumulonimbus is narrow and not easily seen on radar, but the turbulence will only last a couple of seconds. 5. Crew members are human and may not always pick up danger in time, if the radar screen is set too dim or the intensity and scan angle is not set properly during a long tiring flight. 6. Crews can be distracted while handling other issues, like a minimum fuel situation or a system failure and not pay enough attention to the radar screen. 7. One member of the flight crew may still be fairly inexperienced on the route being flown and may not have all the skills yet to manage the powerful convective clouds found in the tropics. 8. Highly computerized aeroplanes, in rare instances, can do unexpected maneuvers that baffle the crew, resulting in high climb or descent rates for a few seconds of the flight. 9. For all these reasons, without wanting to be overly alarmist, it is best to keep your seat belt on whenever possible.

    I always knew that I was committing my life to the flight crew when I get onto an airplane carrying tens of thousands of gallons of aviation fuel with much higher energy density than bomb-grade materials. I became strapped to a flying bomb so I calmed down about the risk of turbulence which is a bit more predictable and avoidable than being strapped so close to so much kerosene, probably.

And when the safety belt sign comes on, thats the signal to get back to your seat ASAP (e.g. if you're queuing for the toilet).

    How many times do people need to be told to keep their seatbelts fastened except when using the toilet, and to keep the length of those visits as short as possible? Most people are totally unharmed, showing that even the basic lap strap is effective AS LONG AS IT IS WORN! The seatbelt sign just means that toilet breaks are over, as you can't remove your belt. Hoping that you will have time to fasten it when you hit undetectable-in-advance clear air turbulence is taking a gamble with your safety and in extreme cases even your life.
