An Etihad Airways Boeing 777-200 freighter, registration A6-DDE
performing freight flight EY-927 from Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) to
Amsterdam (Netherlands) with 4 crew, was enroute at FL320 about 130nm southeast
of Kuwait City (Kuwait) when the captain, who had increasingly felt unwell,
became incapacitated prompting the first officer to declare Mayday and divert
the aircraft to Kuwait, where the aircraft landed safely about 25 minutes later.
Medics awaiting the aircraft could not help the captain anymore, who needed to
be pronounced dead on arrival.
The airline reported they are deeply
saddened to report the passing of their captain.
