A group of 42 passengers boarded Flight 209, a regular flight from Delhi to Paris. Among them were:
Aarav, a quiet boy of 16 who had never flown before.
Mrs. Batra, an old lady going to meet her son after 5 years.
Captain Aryan, a former air force pilot now flying commercial planes.
And Zoya, a travel blogger live-streaming the journey.
The takeoff was smooth. The sky was clear. Everyone thought it would be just another flight.
But 3 hours into the journey, the weather changed.
Dark clouds covered the sky. Lightning flashed. The plane shook. The lights flickered.
Captain Aryan announced, "Everyone, please fasten your seat belts. We are entering rough weather."
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard. The right engine had failed.
Panic spread. Screams filled the cabin.
The plane started descending fast
Then came a moment of silence - and a crash.
