'Will call you when I land,' texted Indian Ethiopia crash victim.
An Indian newly-wed who died in the Nairobi-bound Ethiopian Airlines plane crash had texted her husband she would call him on landing, local media reported Tuesday.
Bhattacharya was also supposed to fly with her to Nairobi but a last-minute change in plans meant he stayed back in New Delhi, the mass-circulation Times of India reported.But before the husband could type a reply, his phone buzzed and a caller informed him about the plane crash, the newspaper said. Later she said she had managed to speak to Garg's bereaved family members as well as those of other three Indians who died in the crash.
The Nairobi-bound Boeing 737 MAX 8 crashed just minutes after an early-morning takeoff Sunday from Addis Ababa.The aircraft was the same type as the Indonesian Lion Air plane that crashed in October, killing 189 passengers and crew.
