Flight Incident and Passenger Response

At Ben Gurion Airport

Such a force pulled me down.

And there was someone else standing at the door in a white shirt, I assume

it was the pilot,

because there were two pilots inside

and, by chance, two pilots were sitting outside in the— in the— in the cabin.

I don't know what they were doing there. Their pilots.

He and I pushed the door. The pilot who'd been stabbed was simply

near the door, so it was hard for us to open it, but I think, in my opinion,

my conclusion is that he managed to open it.

How did he open it? He had to get up there, right?

Before he collapsed.

Before he collapsed, he managed to. Wow, that was great resourcefulness.

When I went in, I saw the idiot

on the controls between the two seats. There weren't, there weren't any pilots

in the seats. One was on the floor, one was on the controls, and another person came in

with me.

I grabbed the— the attacker and put him in a chokehold

and first of all pulled him outside.

What was he doing on those controls? What was he doing?

He tried to destroy the controls in order to d— t, t, t—

That's what—

disable the plane.

That's what you saw.

Yes.

Okay.

When we got him out, it was seconds. The plane's nose was like this.

I called the Israelis who were with us on the plane.

I called to them, they came, two more guys approached me.

I told them—we tied him to it. I jumped back

to it, pulled the controls,

I started pulling the controls, and then the—

the

You pulled the controls?

Yes.

You knew—back?

Back.

You knew.

Like the madness in the investigation, you see, now I...

Yes. And the plane started to level out a bit more, then

the pilot told me he was taking control from here.

The pressure was so strong, it pulled me down.

Yes, that's Fisher of the prime minister with one of the Israelis.
