Scary flight haunts Kottayam man in US

Kottayam: It was shock, followed by relief that A P Joy experienced when he received a phone call from his son Amal Joy early on Tuesday.
Kottayam resident Amal had left for San Francisco, US, from Delhi on Sunday, and he texted his father on Monday, informing his safe arrival at the US airport.

But Tuesday’s call was shocking. The Air India flight which flew Amal across the seas was detected with a ‘cut’ just below its door, something that have been put its 255 passengers in grave danger.

The ‘cut’ was found when the aircraft was inspected before its return to Delhi.

Even though it is unsure whether the Boeing was carrying this 'cut' right from New Delhi, 21-year-old Amal is thanking the almighty for a safe journey.

“There was no hint of any such glitch during the journey and nobody told anything about it. Even after getting down from the flight I never realised that I just had a lucky escape,” told Amal his father.

“Now after coming to know about the incident I am really horrified,” said Amal who is to return to India in the same flight after two months.

Amal too like the other passengers in the flight came to know about the damage in the aircraft through the media.
