An Adelaide man on an international trip with his wife has described the terrifying feeling of free-falling as Singapore Airline pilots navigated severe turbulence during a nightmare flight this week. Hallet Cove man, John Hall, was returning to home from a holiday in Iceland with his wife, Jenny, on the flight from London to Singapore on Tuesday when the plane hit severe turbulence and plummeted almost 2000m within a few minutes.

“ blood all over the place. Blood down seat, one man held on to the base of his seat because he didn’t have a seat belt, and he just went flying.” Hall said he and his wife had their seatbelts strapped, which saved them from being injured. Aviation experts said many injuries could have been prevented if more passengers were wearing seatbelts. Another Adelaide man said his wife could be in a Bangkok hospital for several weeks after being injured.
