An Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, marking the first fatal accident involving this flagship long-haul aircraft.
The doomed flight had 242 people onboard, including foreign nationals.
Designed for fuel efficiency and long-range travel, the 787-8 has faced a history of safety concerns—most notably battery fires and structural warnings from Boeing whistleblowers.
Delivered in 2014, the crashed aircraft was 11 years old.
Boeing’s stock plunged nearly 8% following the news as scrutiny intensifies over the Dreamliner program’s long-standing safety issues.

Fresh controversy has erupted over the fatal Air India crash in Gujarat’s Ahmedabad last month. A Wall Street Journal report claims a cockpit recording reveals the captain cut off the aircraft’s fuel midair, moments after takeoff. The first officer, reportedly panicked, questioned the captain’s move, as per the leaked cockpit transcript. Both pilots, Captain Sumeet Sabharwal and First Officer Clive Kunder, were killed along with 240 others onboard and 19 on the ground—only one person survived. While the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau's (AIIB) preliminary report confirms both fuel switches were turned off within a second, it doesn’t state whether the action was accidental or deliberate. India’s Civil Aviation Minister urged restraint, saying no conclusions should be drawn yet. The Federation of Indian Pilots (FIP) has strongly condemned the US media report, calling it speculative and harmful. Meanwhile, Air India completed checks on the Fuel Control Switches in all Boeing 787s with no issues found.

A former Boeing engineer who worked on the avionics of the Boeing 787 between 2004 and 2007 has weighed in on the tragic crash of Air India Flight AI171. Dismissing the possibility of pilot error, the expert points to a likely failure in the propulsion system — suggesting both engines may have lost power before the crash.
