Three aircraft made emergency landings in parts of India on Sunday, giving some frightening moments to hundreds of passengers and crew members on-board. Two of them were hit by birds, while the third one reported low cabin pressure soon after taking off. These back-to-back freak incidents also offered a moment of reckoning to the aviation sector — which is seeing a continuous rise in traffic. Two more airlines — Akasa Air and Jet — are all set to add to the existing fleet. So, in today’s episode we ask what led to these incidents? And what can be done to avert a recurrence?
