India’s aviation authorities are urging the public to hold off on drawing conclusions about last month’s deadly Boeing 787-8 crash until a final investigation report is released. The call for patience comes after a preliminary report revealed startling details about the moments before the disaster. 🚨
Federal Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu emphasized Saturday that the newly released findings by India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) are “preliminary” and stressed: “No conclusions will be drawn until the final report.” The crash on June 12 killed 260 people, marking India’s worst aviation accident in decades.
The 15-page AAIB report suggests confusion between pilots about engine switches may have led to fuel cutoff—a twist straight out of a thriller movie plot. 🎬 Yet officials clarified no mechanical faults were found in the plane or its engines, and no immediate safety recommendations were issued to Boeing or airlines.
Both Air India and Boeing have pledged full cooperation with the ongoing probe. The AAIB team, formed within 24 hours of the crash, continues to analyze data from the London-bound flight that plummeted shortly after takeoff in Gujarat. 🔎
As families await answers, one question looms: How did dual engines fail simultaneously? For now, the aviation world watches—and waits. ⏳
