Pilot, Passenger Save Flight; Hegseth Gives ‘State of the Force’ Address | NTD Good Morning (Oct. 1)

The leaders of Israel and India are hailing Indian pilot Smit Machchhar as a hero for saving passengers after he was stabbed by his colleague. Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu says an Israeli passenger, hearing the commotion, rushed from row 16 into the cabin to help. A second pair of flydubai pilots were on board and were able to land the jet in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia after it went plunging nearly 14,000 feet in less than 30 seconds after the stabbing. The alleged attacker has been arrested and was being questioned by Saudi authorities. Israeli officials say his motive remains under investigation.

At Wednesday’s State of the Force address, War Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke to junior officers and enlisted leaders at the Marine Corps Base Quantico. He called for a reduction in the total number of officers, and that colonels who want to be promoted to general will need to pass evaluations showing ability to solve complex military problems on winning on the battlefield. He also said some of the changes he’s implementing are twice a year physical fitness tests, and evaluations on competency regardless of gender.

California’s gubernatorial candidates Javier Becerra and Steve Hilton held a heated debate on Wednesday night. Affordability was the focus, with the state being among the most expensive states to live in. Hilton argued for lowering income taxes and cutting the gas tax, with Becerra arguing that his proposed cuts would hurt the state. Polls currently show Becerra leading with 57% and Hilton at 35%.
