The Great Ongoing Aviation Thread (general and other) (Part 2)

And now for some airline shenanigans in the most laid-back part of the world:

A FlyDubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv, while passing over Jordanian airspace, lost altitude without warning and issued the hijacking distress alert. This put the local authorities in a bit of a tizzy, with the Israeli Air Force scrambling fighter jets to intercept. The plane turned around, meandered over the Saudi desert for a while at low altitude, before landing in Tabuk, SA.

Details are unclear at this point, but it appears as though the pilot and copilot had decided to engage in a bit of fisticuffs. As one does.
