More than a month after the Air India flight 171 crash, which claimed over 260 lives, the investigation is mired in controversy. A report in the Wall Street Journal, citing a cockpit recording, suggested pilot error, sparking outrage. This programme examines the pushback from India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) and aviation experts, who allege a deliberate attempt by vested interests to shift blame onto the pilots. The AAIB has criticised the international media for "selective and unverified reporting". An expert on the programme points to a historical trend, stating, "There is a pattern Gaurav, all Boeing accidents which have happened in developing countries before the accident investigation… there is a pattern and this pattern runs way back from 1997." The discussion also covers a previously reported glitch in the aircraft’s stabiliser sensor and a 2018 FAA bulletin about fuel control switches on Boeing 787s, questioning if a mechanical failure is being overlooked. #indiatoday #indiafirst #ai171crash #airindiacrash #boeing #aviation #piloterror #flightsafety #crashinvestigation #medialeaks #aaib #wallstreetjournal #aviationdaily #planecrash #airindia
