  • One person has died and several others were injured when a Singapore Airlines flight from London to Singapore was hit by severe turbulence, the airline and officials have said.
    The Boeing 777-300ER was diverted to Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, Thailand, where it made an emergency landing at 3:45pm (08:45 GMT) on Tuesday.
    Flight SQ321 “encountered severe turbulence en route”, Singapore Airlines said in a statement on its Facebook page.
    “We can confirm that there are injuries and one fatality on board the Boeing 777-300ER,” it said.
    Four hours after the emergency landing, 18 people remained hospitalised while another 12 were being treated on an outpatient basis, read the statement.

    The fact one death on an airplane is news for a global news company really shows how much safer it is than driving.

      @@Cotif11 I'm genuinely curious how discussing an aviation incident where there were injuries and one death doesn't have anything to do with aviation safety to you?

      Not necessarily he is doing it on purpose. This is actually a coping mechanism for some people. Just as a reference it’s actually portrayed in one of the episodes of a US TV show called Modern Family.

    Why would it be rare? If you happened to be standing up or even sitting without wearing the seatbelt, a powerful enough up and down movement would cause you to strongly hit the ceiling, potentially breaking your neck or causing a severe concussion and cranial bleeding. Bad luck can kill you.
