A Neos Boeing 767-300, registration I-NDMJ performing flight NO-731 from Havana (Cuba) to Milan Malpensa (Italy) with 268 passengers and 10 crew, was enroute over the Atlantic about two hours into the flight when the aircraft encountered turbulence causing an altitude deviation of about 1000 feet. The aircraft restabilised, two doctors on board assessed the injured and did not recommend to divert indicating the injuries were mainly contusions. The crew decided to continue to Milan reporting about 35 passengers needed medical attention prompting a massive emergency response in Milan with numerous ambulances dispatched to the airport. The aircraft landed safely in Milan. 66 people required medical attention, 55 of them were taken to hospitals.
Passengers reported they were not noticing anything out of the usual, cabin crew were just serving lunch when the aircraft encountered turbulence throwing all loose items like the lunch trays as well as flight attendants and passengers not wearing their seat belts through the cabin. Many passengers hit the cabin ceiling and received cuts, bruises as well as loose teeth. Two doctors examined the injured.
The FAA reported on Nov 20th that the aircraft encountered severe turbulence in Oceanic Airspace controlled by New York Oceanic Control.
Herald.
Si sente in giro invece dai giornali le solite tipo 3000 mt in 10 sec...e basta pensare che la forza di gravita č 9.8 m/s^2 quindi risulta impossibile.
Forse non sanno cosa voglia dire perdere quasi 10.000 ft in 10 secondi se fosse comunque possibile.
