An Australian man injured when a Singapore Airlines flight 'fell into a huge hole' over Myanmar says his wife 'is not in a great space' after suffering a spinal injury.
An Australian woman has no sensation from her waist down after suffering a spinal injury on a Singapore Airlines flight.
Mr Davis said his wife had been thrown into the overhead lockers and landed in the aisle, where she remained for the rest of the flight, unable to move. "I went headfirst. We were in the middle section so I was dead centre and I went up through all the vents and masks and things."Instead of landing back into the seat area, she fell flat straight into the aisle and from that moment, she didn't move. That's where she remained for the rest of the flight.
"This kid had just bounced off a ceiling, destroyed his chair and he was off applying CPR. Some people just bounced straight out of it. It was amazing."Mr Davis thanked consular officials for their support in the days after the crash.
