Preliminary Report Reveals Critical Findings in Air India Boeing 787 Crash Investigation
A preliminary report into the tragic crash of an Air India Boeing 787 has revealed that fuel switches were cut off moments before the aircraft went down, leading to the failure of both engines shortly after take-off. The investigation is focusing on the actions of the pilots, with indications that pilot confusion over the fuel cutoff may have played a significant role in the disaster. Despite the severity of the incident, which resulted in over 260 fatalities, investigators have reported no immediate design faults with the Boeing aircraft. Further analysis will continue as authorities sift through cockpit audio and other key data to understand the chain of events that led to this catastrophic failure.
