Due to both incidents, many eye global warming as the cause of severe flight turbulence, which, as recently demonstrated, can prove deadly

SINGAPORE: Less than a week after Singapore Airlines flight SQ321 was forced to make an emergency landing in Thailand due to sudden and severe turbulence that left one dead and dozens injured, another incident of turbulence made the headlines.
