I read in several posts on different social media that the two pilots who saved the plane after the pilot conflict/terrorist attack (unclear which) were a Russian and a Ukrainian (!) who solved this together. It's reported for example from several Ukrainian accounts. Has anyone seen this confirmed anywhere? #Nyheter #Ukraina #Ryssland #RU #UA (translated)
Captain Smit Machchhar, what a hero. I read that his condition is stable. He saved the lives of 170 passengers in a suspected jihadist terror attempt today. Two extra pilots went as passengers and took over when the plane went down. Much was right in the cards. Thank God. https://t.co/p7f9vwjB02 #hjälte #terrorism #flygkommunikation (translated)
According to @sverigesradio, it apparently was not an Islamist terrorist act. There was just "a fight" between the pilots. Die public service, die! https://t.co/EgxJdv7MLY #Sverige #Nyheter #Terrorism (translated)
The Flydubai captain Smit Machchhar, an Indian citizen, was stabbed with a knife in the cockpit on flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv today. According to Israeli media and passenger reports, the assailant was the co-pilot, who several sources identify as an Omani. Machchhar is being treated for knife wounds. Several reports on the same day describe his condition as serious. Despite serious injuries, Machchhar helped prevent the plane from crashing. Passengers and two off-duty pilots broke into the cockpit, overpowered the attacker, and landed the plane in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. All 180 or so people on board survived. #Flydubai #Säkerhet #Luftfart (translated)

New information indicates that the knifed captain is the Indian Smit Machchhar, an experienced pilot who is said to have made a heroic effort. Despite being stabbed multiple times, he is said to have resisted while cabin crew and passengers intervened. There is still no information about his injuries or condition. The co-pilot, the man suspected of stabbing the captain and attempting to crash the plane, is from Oman. He is said to have worked for Flydubai for less than a year. The two pilots who then took over the plane were traveling as passengers on duty for Flydubai, which the company has confirmed. They were likely on their way to Tel Aviv to then staff another flight. The three pilots who stopped the disaster are hailed as heroes, as are the passengers and crew members who intervened. About 180 people were on the plane. #hjältar #Flydubai #flygning (translated)
🔴 Lewis Hamilton critique le choix de la F1 de réduire le nombre de tours en course et d'instaurer une course sprint à Monaco la saison prochaine ! 😬 Concernant le week-end Sprint à Monaco : 💬 "Une course sprint à Monaco n’a absolument aucun sens pour moi. Pour voir le côté positif, nous aurons une séance de qualifications supplémentaire, ce qui est sympa, mais j’ai toujours dit que Monaco avait besoin de quelque chose de différent. Je ne pense pas qu’on doive y adopter le même format de course que partout ailleurs. Nous devons trouver une idée spécifique pour un endroit comme celui-ci. C’est un lieu magnifique et un circuit incroyable à piloter au volant, mais la course du dimanche est l’une des plus ennuyeuses qui soient : une course sprint n’est pas la solution." - @Automoto_it Concernant la réduction des tours en course en 2027 : 💬 "Raccourcir les courses n’a absolument aucun sens pour moi. Je pense que les courses devraient être plus longues, car elles sont moins exigeantes physiquement qu'avant. Beaucoup de courses se disputent avec un seul arrêt aux stands : ce n’est pas particulièrement éprouvant." - @Motorsport #F1 #AzerbaijanGP #F1 #MonacoGP #SprintRace
🔴 Esteban Ocon aurait été informé par Haas qu'il ne pilotera plus pour eux la saison prochaine informe @Planet_F1 ! ❌ Il devrait bel et bien être remplacé par Rafael Câmara. Des facteurs tels que des considérations commerciales, ainsi que le soutien de Ferrari pour le jeune pilote brésilien, feraient partie des éléments pesant dans la décision de se séparer du pilote français. Pour rappel, Esteban Ocon a déclaré en début de journée qu'il était, à l'heure actuelle, "libre de tout contrat" 📄 #F1 #AzerbaijanGP #F1 #Formule1 #Ocon
