Tal, an Israeli businessman who was aboard the flydubai flight, says one pilot stabbed another aboard Wednesday's Dubai-to-Tel Aviv flight, and that the cockpit was empty at one point as the plane descended.
While three passengers subdued the attacker, he urged two additional pilots seated in the cabin to take the controls. The aircraft made an emergency landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, and flydubai confirmed all passengers are safe.
