A Number of Affected as Turbulence Strikes A Delta Airlines Aircraft Landing at Sydney
Several people sustained injuries when a Delta Airlines aircraft from Los Angeles to Sydney encountered significant turbulence this past Friday.
Flight DL41 "experienced a brief period of turbulence" as it touched down at the Sydney airport, an airline spokesperson told. A number of the onboard staff sustained injuries.
Emergency medical services stated they treated five patients, and took three to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries that comprised pain in the back and head pain. The patients' ages ranged from their 30s to 70s.
The event represents the newest example of planes experiencing turbulence, with experts saying that shifting climate patterns is a major factor.
On board were 245 people and 15 crew members on the wide-body jet, the official noted, stating that the plane arrived "safely" at Sydney Airport at shortly before 7 a.m. on the day in question.
Emergency responders indicated they received a call just only 180 seconds ahead of the plane landed, and emergency vehicles were ready and waiting at the airport.
Why in-flight bumpiness is growing more common - and often stronger.
During the past year, 25 people sustained injuries when a Delta Airlines flight, on a route from Salt Lake City, Utah to Amsterdam, Netherlands, experienced "significant" turbulence just a couple of hours into the lengthy trip, and had to make an unscheduled landing.
Recently, those on board on a Singapore Airlines jet went through a terrifying brief five-second bout of severe turbulence. An individual passed away and dozens were injured, as those without seatbelts lifted out of their seats and crashed back down.
Bumpy air is not uncommon during flights, and while occurrences of significant turbulence appear to be increasing, they are remained quite uncommon.
Estimates show that there are approximately five thousand cases of severe-or-greater turbulence every year, out of a total of more than 35 million flights that are conducted globally.
Strong atmospheric disturbance is defined as when the vertical motions of a aircraft going through disturbed air exert more than 1.5 times the force of gravity on your body - sufficient force to lift you out of your seat if you were not fastened by a seatbelt.
As a changing climate shifts weather patterns, experts warn that air travel could become more turbulent: shifts in temperature and shifting wind patterns in the upper atmosphere are projected to increase the regularity and severity of dangerous in-flight bumps.
