An old podcast video of Indian Flydubai captain Smit Machchhar has resurfaced after he was injured in a cockpit attack aboard a Dubai-Tel Aviv flight on September 30. In the 2025 conversation with Bona-Fide Banter, Machchhar explained why cabin crew training is vital during emergencies. He said, “When we are up there and if something happens, you know, who’s gonna save you? You’ll be lucky enough to have a doctor on board, but if not, then they are trained. I’m not saying they are trained to do surgeries and stuff, but then they can save your life.” (PC: India Today)
