An Emirates flight flying over Goa averted tragedy on Sunday, and landed safely in Kochi.

The Boeing 777 - flying from Dubai to Kochi with 350 passengers on board - dropped from a height of 20,000 to 1,500 feet :o , possibly due to turbulence caused by rains in the Goa-Kerala region.

Miraculously, the pilot was able to regain control before impact - after dropping 18,500 feet.
