Australian fashion entrepreneurs survive alleged hijacking attempt on Flydubai flight
Steven and Carol Moss, Australian fashion entrepreneurs who once owned the country’s most expensive house, were aboard a Flydubai flight when an Omani man allegedly stabbed a pilot and tried to seize control of the aircraft. Passengers and crew restrained him, averting what the report describes as a suspected hijacking attempt.
The flight was travelling from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Wednesday morning when it plunged 14,000 feet in 29 seconds. Captain Smit Machchhar was severely wounded, and a British off-duty pilot was reportedly among those who helped subdue the attacker. The Mosses, who made their fortune through the Katies fashion chain, said they were concentrating on recovering from the ordeal.
