Plummeting Israel flight dropped like a rollercoaster, says passenger

Translate

A passenger on board Flight FZ1073, which fell 17,000ft (5,200m) in less than two minutes when a pilot apparently stabbed his co-pilot, told the BBC about his experience.

The aircraft had been flying to Israel when the incident took place, which Almog Itali described as feeling like a "rollercoaster".

The plane was diverted to Saudi Arabia after several passengers said they took control of the flight and two other pilots at the rear of the plane reportedly came forward to land the plane.
