THE FLIGHT CREW ADVISED THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT TO PREPARE THE CABIN FOR LANDING. AS SHE PROCEEDED WITH HER DUTIES, THE SEAT BELT SIGN WAS TURNED ON. SECONDS LATER THE AIRPLANE ENCOUNTERED AN AREA OF TURBULENCE WHICH THREW THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT TO THE CEILING, AND SHE FELL BACK TO THE FLOOR ON HER LEFT KNEE. ACCORDING TO AN OFFICIAL FROM THE AIRLINES, THE FLIGHT CREW FOLLOWED COMPANY PROCEDURES DURING THE ARRIVAL PHASE OF THE FLIGHT.
