Even the simplest situations in daily life can sometimes lead to serious disasters. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
A Chinese passenger remembered that he had forgotten to turn off the gas stove at home while flying from Shanghai to Singapore. This situation caused great concern despite the plane being in the air.
If the stove had not been turned off, there was a high risk of a fire breaking out at home. The passenger immediately asked the crew for help.
The plane commander took the home address and the smart lock code of the door and transmitted this information to the ground service specialists. However, initially, the employees of the company managing the house did not believe this message and considered it a scam.
Only after several calls to the home phone was a specialist sent for inspection. About ten minutes later, it was found that there was a strong smell of gas coming from the house, and the kitchen utensils were burned, with the room filled with smoke.
The company employees turned off the gas stove, opened the windows, and ensured the room was ventilated. Thus, the rescue operation was successfully completed within 20 minutes.
The passenger expressed gratitude to the Spring Airlines staff and emphasized that thanks to their alertness and professional assistance, his home was saved from a major disaster. This incident is not the first of its kind.
In 2006, a passenger flying from China to Urumqi also remembered that he had forgotten to turn off the gas stove at home. At that time, the pilots managed to call the passenger's home using satellite phone service.
The passenger's wife answered the phone and turned off the stove in time. These events remind each of us to be cautious.
It is necessary to carefully check gas and electrical appliances before leaving the house. Remember that simple negligence can pose a great danger to life.
It is always important to prioritize safety.
