🚨🚨On June 12, 2025, Air India Flight AI171 (Boeing 787-8, VT-ANB) crashed XX seconds after takeoff from Ahmedabad, India, into a residential area, killing XXX onboard (all but one) and XX on the ground, with XX injuries. The preliminary AAIB report highlights:
⚪️Flight Details: After takeoff at 13:39 IST, a mayday call reported loss of power. The aircraft, piloted by experienced Captain Sumeet Sabharwal and First Officer Clive Kunder, crashed into a hostel, causing explosions.
⚪️Investigation Focus: Black box data shows both engine fuel control switches moved to CUTOFF, shutting down the engines. Cockpit audio suggests confusion, with one pilot denying intentional action. The switches require deliberate movement, and no defects were reported since 2023.
⚪️Mechanical Context: The 11-year-old aircraft had no known mechanical issues; the emergency power system was active. No urgent advisories were issued.
⚪️Investigation Status: The AAIB, with UK and US support, is analyzing black boxes and inspecting Air India’s XXX fleet. A final report is due by September 2025.
🔴Misinformation: A hoax claiming a seat malfunction caused the crash was debunked.
The crash, the first fatal Boeing XXX incident, likely stemmed from the engine shutdown, with the cause—human error or otherwise—still under investigation.
