'Investigations of this magnitude take time': US probe agency slams media reports on Air India 171 crash; calls them 'premature and speculative'

IndiaTimes Saturday, 19 July 2025 ()
The NTSB criticized media coverage of the Air India Flight 171 crash preliminary report as premature and speculative. This follows the AAIB's release of its initial findings, which cited engine failure and cockpit confusion after takeoff from Ahmedabad. The AAIB urged against spreading unverified information and emphasized that the report only outlines events, not causes, pending a final, comprehensive analysis.

AI171 Tragedy: Aviation Experts EXPOSE Report Gaps | Is Foreign Media Twisting the Narrative?

AI171 Tragedy: Aviation expert and Wing Commander Sharath Panicker has strongly dismissed claims of pilot error in the recent Air India crash, calling the official AAIB report deeply flawed. He points out missing pilot signatures, the absence of any pilot in the investigative team, and major procedural gaps. The controversy has sparked demands for transparency and a reinvestigation, with concerns growing over potential bias and foreign media misrepresentation. #AirIndiaCrash #PilotNotAtFault #AviationExpert #SharathPanicker #AAIBReport #FlightInvestigation #CrashReportFlaws #NewsUpdate #FlightCrashInvestigation #IndiaFlightCrash #BreakingNews #YouTubeNews #IndiaTrending #AviationNews #IndiaNewsToday #OneIndiaNews #AirIndia #Boeing787 #AI171 #AhmedabadPlanecrash #AI171Tragedy ~HT.410~ED.102~

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

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~
