SINGAPORE, May 29 (Reuters) - Preliminary findings from
an investigation into a Singapore Airlines flight hit
by severe turbulence last week showed a rapid change in
gravitational force and 54 metre altitude drop caused injuries,
Singapore's transport ministry said on Wednesday.
One passenger died of a suspected heart attack and dozens
were injured after Singapore Airline Flight SQ321, flying from
London to Singapore, encountered what the airline described as
sudden, extreme turbulence while flying over Myanmar. The
ministry said the investigation was ongoing.
