‘Crazy’ FlyDubai landing explained by Israeli pilot, who offers steps to prevent future crises
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Eliran Almog, a former Israeli helicopter pilot turned aviation cybersecurity firm CEO, explained just how «crazy» it was that the near-hijacked FlyDubai flight 1073 managed to land safely after a violent midair attack.
«You can’t imagine being in that position. You see the videos, you hear the kids screaming, and people don’t necessarily understand what is happening,» the former Israeli Air Force pilot told Fox News Digital.
After an Omani national copilot — who has since been identified as 29-year-old Hamam al-Hammami — allegedly stabbed FlyDubai flight 1073’s pilot Capt. Smit Machchhar mid-flight, the aircraft plummeted more than 14,000 feet in 30 seconds.
«The g-force on the plane was enormous, and you basically think you are going to die,» Almog said, adding «it’s crazy that the aircraft did not break up in the air, and landing it with the tail damage it sustained was remarkable.»

Despite sustaining serious injuries, Machchhar was able to hit a button to open the cockpit door, allowing Israeli passengers to rush into the cockpit and subdue al-Hammami, officials said. A second FlyDubai crew that happened to be aboard the craft then stabilized the plane and successfully completed an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.
FLYDUBAI PILOT SHOWED WORLD ‘THE HIGHEST FORM OF COURAGE,’ INDIA’S PM SAYS
«As a pilot, if I were in this situation, I’m not sure I could have landed the aircraft. Every commercial aircraft is different, requiring different setup, landing procedures and limitations,» Almog explained.

Almog, who now advises airliners and adjacent businesses on how to shore up their cybersecurity, explained how crucial it was for carriers to ensure their pilots undergo thorough screening processes for both psychological and potential political risks.
FLYDUBAI CO-PILOT ACCUSED OF STABBING CAPTAIN IDENTIFIED AS 29-YEAR-OLD OMANI NATIONAL
«We give a lot of weight in the process to the characteristics of the pilot. The technical and cognitive skills are important, but we make sure that the pilot is balanced and resilient in extreme cases,» he said.
«Because aviation is critical infrastructure, we must rethink how we screen pilots — not just initially, but continuously. Even for experienced pilots, we need the right tools in place to identify when someone is facing family issues, psychological distress, or developing extreme views that could impose risk. These are practices the industry needs to adopt, and I call on governments and regulators to step in,» he continued.
PILOT’S SUDDEN DEATH DURING OVERNIGHT LAYOVER PUTS SPOTLIGHT ON FATIGUE CONCERNS
While numerous countries, including Israel and Saudi Arabia, are conducting their own investigations into al-Hammami and the FlyDubai incident, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Fox & Friends in a Thursday interview that the copilot had been exposed to «Islamist radical indoctrination.»
President Donald Trump, meanwhile, suggested the pilot could have been trained or motivated by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
TRUMP’S IRAN CRACKDOWN COLLIDES WITH NATO ALLY SEEKING ACCESS TO AMERICA’S PRIZED FIGHTER JET
Almog told Fox News Digital that geopolitical concerns, such as the ones imposed by the ongoing wars in the Middle East, are increasingly becoming airlines’ top risk factor for a number of reasons.
«If you ask the airlines today what are the main risks that they are looking forward on, it is geopolitical risk,» he said. «… We are tracking GNSS and GPS jamming and spoofing activities, and I can show you the map and you can understand exactly where the conflicts are.»
AMERICANS WARNED AGAIN TO RETHINK TRAVEL AS MISSILE ATTACK RATTLES HISTORIC REGION
Almog also explained how pilots are not the only people airlines need to screen or keep an eye on.
«Pilots aren’t the only ones who can crash a plane. Over 80% of cybersecurity threats come from insiders — many of whom may not even realize they are posing a risk,» he said. «It isn’t just pilots; it’s cabin crew and maintenance personnel. A plane can crash without the right fuel balance or proper maintenance parameters. Aviation relies on a complex supply chain. It would be a mistake to limit psychological screening and background monitoring to pilots alone — it needs to expand to every person who impacts flight operations.»
Almog also praised both the resiliency of the flight’s passengers and the heroism of Capt. Machchhar.

«Ultimately, this was a chain of circumstances that prevented a total disaster,» he said. «Beyond personal resilience, it took the courage of the off-duty Indian pilot who opened the door, and the fact that FlyDubai had two other pilots on board who landed the aircraft safely.»
«As a pilot, I can tell you that isn’t easy. Landing an unfamiliar commercial aircraft type under extreme stress requires specialized training, which is why rigorous screening and continuous support for flight crews are so vital,» he added.

Más de 925 mil negocios sostienen el empleo salvadoreño y marcan récord de optimismo, según informe
El Observatorio MYPE de la Escuela LID de la Fundación Salvadoreña de Apoyo Integral (FUSAI) y la Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (Flacso El Salvador) presentaron este 23 de octubre el informe anual “El estado de la MYPE 2026: La otra cara de la economía”, en el cual revelaron que las micro y pequeñas empresas alcanzaron un nivel récord de confianza pero afrontan barreras estructurales de crédito, saturación barrial y pérdidas climáticas.
El estudio evalúa el comportamiento de un parque productivo que agrupa a más de 925 mil unidades económicas y genera más de dos tercios del empleo en El Salvador.
Durante el acto de apertura, la presidenta de la junta directiva de la Escuela LID de FUSAI, Ana María Herrarte, ilustró los desafíos del sector con el caso de una confeccionista de Suchitoto que trabaja en la sala de su vivienda:
“Ganas de crecer nos sobran. Lo que nos falta es cómo ampliar el cuarto donde coso sin que el banco me pida imposibles y dónde vender cuando cada vez hay más competencia”.
Herrarte subrayó que el Índice de Confianza Empresarial marcó un récord de 109.1 puntos en el segundo trimestre de 2026, pero remarcó que las pequeñas empresas elevaron sus ventas en 42.4 puntos, mientras las de subsistencia retrocedieron 10.4 puntos.
Los cinco hallazgos centrales del informe sobre la microempresa salvadoreña
A partir de encuestas directas a miles de propietarios en todo el territorio salvadoreño, los investigadores puntualizaron cinco conclusiones determinantes:
- Saturación comercial en los vecindarios: Cuatro de cada 10 propietarios señalaron que la competencia representa su principal problema operativo. De ese grupo, el 63% explicó que la caída en sus ingresos obedece a la apertura constante de locales idénticos en su misma zona geográfica.
- Exclusión bancaria y distorsión crediticia: El 51.5% de los negocios no tiene ninguna relación con instituciones financieras formales y solo el 35.1% se encuentra bancarizado. Asimismo, apenas el 3.5% de las microempresas dispone de una cuenta a nombre de la empresa, lo cual ocasiona que las entidades otorguen créditos personales de consumo con tasas más altas y plazos rígidos.
El director del Observatorio MYPE, Luis Castillo, y el investigador Rafael Pleitez detallaron que el 47% de los beneficiarios de financiamiento afirma que los préstamos poco o nada se adaptan al ritmo operativo de sus ventas.
- Demanda de trabajadores polivalentes y primer empleo: Tres de cada cuatro negocios que prevén contratar colaboradores buscan personas polivalentes, aptas para asumir múltiples tareas cotidianas como atención al cliente, cobranza y manufactura.
- La vivienda como taller productivo desprovisto de crédito: El 43.1% de los propietarios utiliza su propio hogar como centro laboral, una proporción que asciende al 50.4% en las unidades lideradas por mujeres. La mitad de estos comerciantes reconoció que las carencias de infraestructura en su inmueble limitan la capacidad operativa de la empresa. Cerca de 344 mil negocios necesitaron crédito para remodelar su vivienda productiva pero evitaron solicitarlo, debido al temor al rechazo o a los requisitos excesivos del sistema bancario.
- Vulnerabilidad ante el calor extremo y falta de pólizas: El calor excesivo provocó la pérdida de mercancía perecedera y alejó a los clientes. Para subsanar las pérdidas, solo el 1.5% de los afectados utilizó un seguro, por lo que el 38.2% recurrió a deudas de emergencia y el 15.1% liquidó maquinaria de trabajo.
El respaldo internacional busca transformar las expectativas en resultados medibles
La encargada de negocios de la Unión Europea, Francesca Gizzi, expuso durante la ceremonia el compromiso financiero de la cooperación internacional con los emprendedores salvadoreños. La contribución europea al desarrollo empresarial en el país supera los 27 millones de euros, fondos canalizados a través de la Iniciativa Dinámica II junto al Banco Centroamericano de Integración Económica (BCIE) y el banco de desarrollo alemán KfW, dentro de la estrategia Global Gateway.
La diplomática remarcó que los programas vigentes han beneficiado a más de 400 negocios locales mediante capital semilla, adopción de herramientas digitales y preparación técnica para ingresar a mercados internacionales.
Por su parte, el presidente de la Comisión Nacional de la Micro y Pequeña Empresa (Conamype), Paul David Steiner, señaló que el 93.5% de los patronos formales inscritos ante el Instituto Salvadoreño del Seguro Social corresponde a este segmento.
Steiner insistió en la necesidad de unir el circuito económico tradicional con los grandes conglomerados: “En todos estos años todavía tenemos dos economías, la de arriba y la de abajo. La única solución para este país es integrar la de abajo con la de arriba”.
Frente a este panorama, Conamype y la Escuela LID de FUSAI habilitaron el centro de atención empresarial número 15 del país, con el propósito de brindar asesoría técnica territorial, formación laboral polivalente y programas de financiamiento adaptados a las condiciones operativas de los comerciantes salvadoreños.

Tens of thousands of secondary school students and their supporters march from Republic to Nation square on Oct. 6, 2026, in Paris, France. Nationwide student protests and violent school riots have disrupted over 700 secondary schools and led to roughly 5,000 arrests across France. What began in late September 2026 as peaceful blockades in the low-income Paris suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis has rapidly escalated into a major public order crisis for President Emmanuel Macron’s government.

FREMONT, Neb. — If Democrats are able to gain control of the House of Representatives, one relationship between the top two lawmakers on both sides of Congress could define the remainder of President Donald Trump’s time in office.
If that’s the outcome on Election Night, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., would have to work with the Democratic leader who rises in the House, and that is expected to be House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., who has led Democrats in the lower chamber since 2023.
But Thune, in an interview with Digital on the campaign trail in Nebraska, remained confident that wouldn’t be the outcome.
THUNE MAKES BOLD PREDICTION ABOUT REPUBLICANS’ SENATE CHANCES AS GOP PULLS MILLIONS FROM KEY RACES
«Well, I mean, I think obviously that’s an entirely different dynamic,» Thune said. «You’ve got a situation with divided government and that creates a different incentive structure in terms of if you want to be able to get things done, but I don’t assume for a minute that’s going to happen.»
«I still think that when push comes to shove and people look at the choices in front of them that we have a really good shot at hanging on both the House and the Senate,» he continued.
Election forecasters predict that the Senate could stay in Republican control, though seven total races are considered toss-ups by the Cook Political Report. Republicans’ chances of holding onto power in the House, however, are murkier, given that dozens of battleground seats are in play that have shifted favorably toward Democrats.
The GOP has had a grip on the lower chamber since 2022, when it flipped the House during former President Joe Biden’s presidency. But a deeply unpopular Trump, whose approval ratings have dipped to historic lows, and continued economic pressures could contribute to Democrats regaining power.
JOHNSON DOWNPLAYS GOP’S MIDTERM WOES AS DEMOCRATS EYE HOUSE TAKEOVER: ‘I AM VERY BULLISH’
Jeffries’ office did not respond to an inquiry from Digital asking whether he could work with Thune if both won their respective leadership spots.
There has been no love lost between the two men during this congressional term so far, with each sharply criticizing the other during key legislative fights.
Thune blasted Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., earlier this year as talks began to break down over funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The top Republican accused both of being «afraid of their shadows,» and being controlled by their left flank.
That prompted Jeffries to retort to reporters that it was Thune who was «scared of his own shadow» during the partisan standoff. During the 2025 government shutdown, Jeffries accused Thune of «trying to bluff his way into an agreement» on federal spending.
Congress is no stranger to a divided government, either. From 2023 to early 2025, Republicans controlled the House and Democrats held a razor-thin majority in the Senate.
SCHUMER WARNS OF REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE THAT COULD CHANGE THE BATTLE FOR SENATE CONTROL
During that time, according to data collected by the Pew Research Center, the split Congress produced 106 laws. This version of Congress has so far produced 121 laws, with some major legislative action happening, like the «big, beautiful bill» and a major housing affordability package, passing between historically long government shutdowns.
Thune is laser-focused on keeping the GOP’s control of the Senate, which was under Democratic control until 2024, when Trump and Republicans clinched a trifecta in Washington, D.C.
He’s crisscrossed the country for the last several weeks of the homestretch heading into the election on Nov. 3, boosting candidates in competitive races that could determine the balance of power in the Senate.
Republican control of the upper chamber, he contended, would be vital to continuing key chunks of Trump’s agenda, including confirming his judicial and other executive branch nominations.
«So if you want to see the country succeed and move forward, we’ve got to have a majority in the U.S. Senate to work with this president,» Thune said. «Hopefully with a majority in the House as well, but I am very committed to doing whatever I can in the next couple of weeks getting around the country on behalf of our candidates to ensure that we have that majority in the Senate.»
