Turbulence Tragedy: A Glimpse into the Dark Side of Air Travel The recent news that Linda Kitchen, a 74 year old widow from Bristol, has begun legal action against Singapore Airlines after her husband's fatal injury during a flight is a stark reminder of the perils that lurk in the skies.
In May 2024, severe turbulence dropped the plane by an astonishing 6,000 feet over Myanmar. The case raises several disturbing questions about safety protocols in place for air travel.
While the airline's emergency response team performed CPR on Geoff Kitchen after he fell ill, it is unclear whether more could have been done to prevent his death.
