Delhi airport weather chaos: 14 flight diversions, hundreds delayed as storms hit
Severe rain and low visibility disrupted operations at Delhi’s IGI Airport on Tuesday evening, forcing 14 flight diversions and causing widespread delays and cancellations. One flight was diverted to Lucknow, with others sent to Bhopal, Chandigarh, Amritsar, Ahmedabad, and Varanasi. Air India reported extensive delays and some cancellations as crews hit duty-time limits, while one runway remained shut for upgrades.
Can 2 planes collide mid air?
Well, folks, buckle up! As daunting as the question may sound, it's possible for 2 planes to collide mid-air, but it's as rare as a chicken with dentures! Our skies are packed with safety net systems, like traffic collision avoidance systems, and air traffic controllers, who are like traffic cops for airplanes. These systems don't just prevent a mid-air version of a fender bender, they're so good, you're more likely to win the lottery while being struck by lightning. So, next time you're airborne, don't sweat it, chances of a mid-air collision are lower than my attempts at cooking a decent meal!
