New Details Reveal What The Pilot Planned To Do | 700 Club
What did investigators find? According to Monday's edition of The 700 Club, the co-pilot of an Israel-bound FlyDubai flight meant to use the plane itself as a weapon against Israel. That is the news behind "New Details Reveal What The Pilot Planned To Do | 700 Club." Eleven hours after it went up, the October 5 episode had passed 31,000 views. A new upload on this channel usually ends its whole first day at a little over 4,000.
The program has stayed with this story. An earlier edition built around the flight and its pilot also ran far ahead of the usual, as we reported here. On the same Monday the channel posted a shorter piece, "Airline Ignored Radical Islam Warnings?", which asks how a co-pilot with what its description calls a suspicious history was overlooked. That clip is still in the low thousands. The full episode is where viewers went.
The second half of the show turns to something closer to home. In Rule Your Tech, Jedd Medefind asks whether technology is shaping its users more than they realize, and the episode presents the book as a guide to wiser, healthier habits with a spiritual side.
In the comments, many viewers leave short prayers, and several write in praise of the flight's captain.
The busy episode comes during a quieter stretch for the channel as a whole, which is drawing well under half its usual daily views. Its most watched recent upload is still Saturday's 700 Club Israel story about a survivor of the Nova Music Festival attack.
