Australians are among 20 passengers from flight SQ321 being treated in ICU at Samitivej Srinakarin hospital in Bangkok

Three Australians remain in intensive care in a Bangkok hospital after their Singapore Airlines flight violently dropped when encountering severe turbulence earlier this week.

Aviation investigators arrived in the city on Wednesday to begin examining the incident, with the US National Transportation Safety Board also sending technical advisors because of the involvement of a Boeing plane. “I ... didn’t realise what happened. I must have got hit in the head somewhere. Lots of people hit their head. Everyone was bleeding,” Silverstone, who had been on his way to Singapore before a holiday in Bali with friends, told Reuters.
