Flydubai Co-Pilot Stabs Captain in Alleged Hijack Attempt
Original: Co-Pilot Stabs Captain on Flydubai Flight; Passengers Foil Hijack Attempt
A Flydubai co-pilot allegedly stabbed the captain during a flight, in what authorities are describing as an attempted hijacking. Passengers and crew intervened and restrained him, preventing the plane from being seized. The captain survived the attack. The incident has prompted discussion of cockpit security and the vetting of flight crew, with many asking how a pilot could turn on his own captain mid-flight.
Why now: A rare mid-flight attack by a crew member, stopped by passengers, is alarming and raises questions about aviation security.
