BBC Under Fire For 'Burying Boeing Blame': Netizens ACCUSE Network Of Twisting AI171 Crash Report

The crash of Air India flight AI171 has sparked a storm of controversy as BBC’s coverage comes under scrutiny. The network is being accused of prematurely blaming pilot error based on partial cockpit audio, while downplaying potential Boeing faults. Netizens argue the full context—including the second pilot’s denial—was omitted. Critics say the BBC’s narrative shifts blame from Boeing to the flight crew, especially after the channel changed a YouTube title post-backlash. Public figures like Suhel Seth have slammed the reporting as biased, questioning the integrity of the BBC’s narrative. #AI171Crash #AirIndia #BBCNews #BBCControversy #PilotError #CockpitAudio #Boeing737 #AviationNews #BBCBias #BoeingAccountability #PlaneCrash #FlightSafety #CrashInvestigation #BBCBacklash #BreakingNews #AviationScandal #NewsEthics #IndiaNews #BoeingUnderFire #SuhelSeth #CrashReport #NarrativeControl #MediaBias #BBCIndia #FlightAI171 #PilotVsBoeing #BBCCriticism #PublicOutrage #BiasInMedia #AviationControversy Also Read Air India Flight Crash: Internet Blasts BBC For Biased Reporting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/air-india-flight-crash-internet-blasts-bbc-for-biased-reporting-7799453.html?ref=DMDesc Air India AAIB Report On Ahmedabad Plane Crash Says Co-Pilot Was Flying, Captain Was Monitoring :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/air-india-aaib-report-on-ahmedabad-plane-crash-says-co-pilot-was-flying-captain-was-monitoring-7799327.html?ref=DMDesc Biased Towards Pilot Error In AAIB Report: Pilot Association Bats For Fair Inquiry Into Air India Plane Crash :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/biased-towards-pilot-error-in-aaib-report-pilot-association-bats-for-fair-inquiry-into-air-india-pl-011-7799193.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

Preliminary Probe Report Reveals SHOCKING Details Of AI171’s Cockpit Audio | AI171 Crash Report

A chilling preliminary report by India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) confirms that both engines of Air India’s Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner shut down seconds after takeoff from Ahmedabad on June 12, killing at least 270 people. The aircraft was airborne for just 32 seconds before slamming into buildings near BJ Medical College. Crucially, cockpit recordings capture a moment of confusion: one pilot asks, “Why did you cut off?” to which the other replies, “I didn’t.” Investigators found both fuel control switches had flipped from ‘RUN’ to ‘CUTOFF’, triggering total engine failure. The RAT deployed, signaling power loss, and the plane began a rapid descent. Despite efforts to restart, only one engine partially responded. Sabotage is ruled out, but scrutiny now falls on a 2018 FAA advisory and maintenance history. The probe will focus on whether faulty switches or human error led to one of India’s deadliest aviation disasters. #AirIndiaCrash #DreamlinerDisaster #AI171 #PlaneCrashProbe #AAIB #AviationDisaster #AhmedabadCrash #AircraftEngines #CockpitAudio #AviationSafety #IndiaPlaneCrash #Boeing787 #RunToCutoff #CrashInvestigation #FlightAI171 #AviationNews #RATDeployment #EngineFailure #BoeingProbe #FlightRecorder ~HT.96~GR.125~ED.102~
