Pilot Protects Plunging Perth Posse
This article headline takes alliteration to new heights. (Pity about the titular plane.)
A Malaysia Airlines pilot elected to return a KL-bound aircraft to Perth after experiencing problems shortly after take-off, including a sudden 200 metre drop in altitude.
But stunningly, it appears that it wasn’t the drop or the associated turbulence that disturbed passengers most.
"When the flight attendant dropped an entire tray of drinks and was crawling on his hands and knees back to his seat and the other flight attendant was praying, that's when most of us began to take it a bit more seriously," one passenger said.
Clumsiness + religion = CHAOS!
What a refreshingly warped approach to a mid-air crisis.
