Passengers on flight to Auckland describe ‘mid-air drop’ with people thrown from their seats
Fifty people have been treated by ambulance crews and 13 people are in hospital after an in-bound aircraft to Auckland experienced a “strong movement” mid-flight that reportedly saw passengers suddenly thrown about the plane.
In a statement, Hato Hone St John Ambulance said the organisation responded to an incident at Auckland International airport involving an inbound aircraft after a call at 3.58pm local time on Monday.
Five ambulances, a major incident support team vehicle, two rapid response vehicles and a number of senior personnel were dispatched to treat passengers who had been injured on the flight.
The flight controls are well capable of sending the plane on a negative G roller coaster. But usually there are measures in place to prevent that

Is that gremlin named Dave Calhoun, the CEO of boeing?
Interesting. My milkman was called Davey Calhoun when I was a kid. We called him Davey the Crow because he was a bin-raking smelly bastard
This was in the Scottish Highlands in the 1970s, do you think it’s the same guy?
I do. I do think it’s the same guy.
