Singapore Airlines Turbulence | Passengers On Flight Describe Nightmare At 37,000 Feet | G18V

Passengers on a Singapore Airlines flight hit by severe turbulence, described a sudden, dramatic drop as "all hell broke loose" on board the Boeing airliner carrying 229 passengers and crew. Flight SQ321 was cruising at 37,000 feet from London to Singapore. But as the plane flew above Myanmar, it suddenly hit extreme turbulence, wildly throwing passengers, flight attendants and inflight meals and around the cabin. Flight tracking data shows the plane rapidly plunged before climbing several hundred feet. The dip and ascent was repeated for about 90 seconds. The plane was diverted to Bangkok after the incident. One passenger died of a suspected heart attack and at least 30 were injured, many of them had broken arms.

    Bay of Bengal, Andaman areas are very prone to have severed Air Turbulence and not all turbulence is predictable. I therefore suggest captain to turn on the Fasten Seat Belt whenever passing through this area

    The crew, on SQ anyway, ALWAYS advise passengers to be belted up even if the sign is off! I used to fly a lot in my work, and I ALWAYS buckle-up, unless I need to go to the toilet, from pre-take off, till when the aircraft docks at the air bridge on arrival at the destination.

    The 6000 ft descent was a controlled descent to a new flight level and took 6 minutes. The turbulence lasted less than a minute and was over a range of about 500 ft. Many news media mixed this up and copies false information from each other, instead of just using publicly available flight data

    You can't blame the Airline and you can't blame the Weather !!! It is the stupid design of the Boeing 777 aircraft !!! This Aircraft is simply a Long Tube filled with people, but the problem is the Size of the Wings !!! The Wings are simply Thin Strips trying to lift and support the Huge Fuselage at 45,000 feet in Thin Air !!! and to make matters worse, the Aircraft has ONLY TWO ENGINES !!! During my time working in SQ working on the 747s and A340s, the worst AirPocket was a 400foot drop - somewhere over the Indian Ocean, ..... but that 747 had FOUR ENGINES pushed to FULL THROTTLE by the Pilots in that Turbulence, and the 747 having BIGGER WING SURFACE experienced only a 400 foot drop.....in those days, we heard of other Airlines suffering 800 foot drop in AirPocket Turbulences.... So, this incidence of an INSANELY CRAZY 6,000 FOOT DROP is because of having ONLY TWO ENGINES, SKINNY WINGS and TAIL FINS not being able to get enough LIFT in a AIRPOCKET DROP !!! Well, Congratulations to the Aircraft Designers who in pursuit of FUEL ECONOMY inventing such Aircrafts expecting SKINNY WINGS to keep the AirCraft in the Air travelling at higher speeds !!!! (yes, travel faster on SKINNY WINGS.... but you get the WORST AIRPOCKET EXPERIENCES!! ) ...... never mind, ..... after all 6,000 foot drop is only a Fraction of the 45,000 which all Airlines Fly at.......... by the way.... if you search on youtube most bad turbulences are on these Aircraft with Skinny Wings and 2 Engines.......😒

    There was no 6000 feet drop. After the turbulence, the captain made a descent toward Bangkok from 37,000 feet to 31,000 which was not part of the turbulence event, but a standard controlled descent to a new flight level and took about 6 minutes at a normal rate of descent. It is all clear from the flight data, which is public. You clearly have no expertise and make lots of wrongful assumptions and conclusions

  • @ibsn87

    ARROGANCE EVERYWHERE! the plane “FELL/PLUNGED 6000 feet in 3 minutes”. That = 2000 feet a minute. A NORMAL descent from that altitude will often start at around is 3500 feet…. which means in 3 minutes a normal descent would be closer to 11500 feet.
