Airplane turns over because mother forgot her baby at the airport!
We all remember the movie classic Kevin home alonein which the mother of a large family forgets one of her sons at home. That something like that could happen in reality, you can not imagine. Actually.
Because something similar has actually happened? in Saudi Arabia. A mother wanted to travel with her baby to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia). When the plane was hovering above the clouds, she noticed that she had forgotten something important at the Abdul Aziz airport in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia): her baby!
Mother forgets baby at the airport
What do you do in such a situation? If you forgot your child in a shop, in a car or with friends, you could simply turn around and pick it up. But on the plane, such a return is more difficult. Not one controls the flight, but the pilot. And even that does not have the last word, but the competent tower, which has an overview of all departures and landings.
Of course, the mother ran to the cockpit, reported her misfortune and refused to continue the flight. The pilot immediately contacted the tower and asked what he could do. The colleagues in the tower briefly conferred. This has never happened before? so there was no directive as to whether a return of the pilot should be ordered or not. Lucky for mother and child: The air traffic controllers ordered the pilot an immediate return flight, so that the baby could be picked up by her. The Boeing 787-9 with the flight number SV832 turned around.
The video, which shows the conversation between the pilot and the air traffic controllers, has already been accessed over 1.7 million times:
As a rule, airplanes are now allowed to reverse if, for example, it is a medical emergency.
Why the mother forgot her baby is unclear. But it is heavily criticized in social media. How could you forget your own child? She should bear the costs of the action, others demanded.
The pilot, on the other hand, is celebrated by thousands of people for his humanity: For he has classified the forgotten baby as an "emergency".
