Flight tracking data suggests that the Singapore Airlines flight dropped several thousand feet in a matter of minutes.
File photo of a Singapore Airlines Boeing 777 aircraft as seen on final approach flying over the houses of Myrtle Avenue at London Heathrow Airport. A Singapore Airlines flight from London to Singapore experienced 'severe turbulence' on May 21, 2024, resulting in one passenger's death.
Tracking data captured by FlightRadar24 and analyzed by The Associated Press showed the Singapore Airlines flight cruising at an altitude of 37,000 feet . Just after 8 a.m. GMT, the Boeing 777 suddenly and sharply pitched down to 31,000 feet over the span of some three minutes, the data shows. “Suddenly the aircraft starts tilting up and there was shaking so I started bracing for what was happening, and very suddenly there was a very dramatic drop so everyone seated and not wearing seatbelt was launched immediately into the ceiling,” Dzafran Azmir said.
