"Why the RAT Changes Everything Air India [---] Update In this update to our original video on Air India Flight [---] Captain Steeeve revisits his initial theoryand sets the record straight. Previously Steeeve leaned heavily into the possibility that the pilot may have accidentally retracted the flaps instead of the landing gear during the takeoff roll resulting in a critical loss of lift. But new higher-quality footage tells a different story. In this video we clearly see the Ram Air Turbine (RAT) deployedsomething that only happens in the event of significant power loss. This changes everything."
