This House resolution recognizes the heroic actions of Captain Smit Machchhar, the crew, and passengers of Flydubai Flight 1073 following an attempted terrorist attack on September 30, 2026. During the flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv, the first officer attacked the captain and tried to take control of the plane, causing a rapid loss of altitude. Despite serious injuries, Captain Machchhar managed to unlock the cockpit door, allowing off-duty pilots and crew to restrain the attacker and safely land the plane in Saudi Arabia. The resolution honors the courage and quick response of all involved, condemns the attack as terrorism, and calls for thorough investigations by relevant governments, including keeping the U.S. and Israel informed. This resolution highlights the importance of aviation security and international cooperation in responding to threats against civil aviation.
