For the first time: The pilots who landed the Flydubai flight have been revealed.
They entered the cockpit after the Indian pilot, Sumit Machhar, was attacked with an axe during an attempted suicide attack.
They managed to land the Boeing in Saudi Arabia, despite part of its tail having been broken off.
Following a commendation ceremony in the UAE—where they were honored alongside Machhar—the pilots' names have been disclosed: Hanson Stephen from Fiji and Rowan Toth from South Africa.
"They acted with heroism and composure."
