3 injured as turbulence hits Delta flight landing in Sydney

Published by Sam Flores

Three people were taken to a hospital after a Delta Air Lines flight from Los Angeles encountered turbulence shortly before landing in Sydney on Friday, health officials in Australia said. Paramedics assessed five people and transported three to the city’s Royal Prince Alfred Hospital for further treatment, a spokesperson for the New South Wales Ambulance Service confirmed to NBC News. The three people range in age from 35 to 70 and remain in stable condition as they are treated mainly for “minor musculoskeletal injuries,” the spokesperson added. A spokesperson for the Sydney Local Health District declined to provide further details. “The most common cause for turbulence on flights around Sydney is convective storms,” according to Michael Heisel, a lecturer at The University of Sydney’s School of Civil Engineering. “These weather events are becoming more common in Australia with the warming climate,” he said in an email Friday. Flight-tracking data published by Flightradar24 showed the plane from Los Angeles landed just after 6.40 a.m. local time (3:40 p.m. Thursday ET). The flight “encountered brief turbulence upon …
