Trump Hails Boeing 737 MAX as 'Genius' After Flydubai Cockpit Attack
US President Donald Trump praised Boeing after an incident involving a Flydubai flight, where a violent cockpit altercation forced the plane to make an emergency landing. The pilot was stabbed by the first officer, who attempted to crash the aircraft.
The Boeing 737 MAX 8, which was traveling from Dubai to Tel Aviv on September 30, landed safely in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, thanks to the actions of other crew members who were on board.
Trump congratulated Boeing for producing a plane that could withstand forces beyond its design limits. However, it's unclear how he came to this conclusion, as there is no evidence to support it.
The incident is currently under investigation, and Trump's praise has been met with skepticism by some who question the accuracy of his claims.
