Plane plummets to Earth, a phone call that never came
The Morning Standard
|June 13, 2025
An old and ailing father in Mumbai realises it's futile to wait for his son to come home and take care of him. The son, Pilot-in-Command Sumit Sabharwal, died in Thursday's Air India plane crash.
He phoned his dad before the flight to London. "I'll call you once I reach London." He barely made it to the perimeter of the airport before the Dreamliner plummeted to Earth.
Three days back, the younger Sabharwal had a heart-to-heart chat with his dad. The conversation must have thrilled the old man, who lived alone after his wife passed away a couple of years ago. Sumit told him that he wanted to stop flying and take care of his father. The son was a bachelor.
