The Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has mandated a fuel switch inspection for all Boeing aircraft in India by July 21, following the AI-171 crash controversy in Ahmedabad. The Airline Pilots Association has expressed concerns regarding the accident investigation report, questioning its methodology and advocating for the inclusion of commercial pilots in the investigation team. The report indicates that both fuel switches on the Boeing 787 transitioned from run to cut-off three seconds after takeoff, leading to speculation about potential causes such as pilot error or electrical malfunction. A panel discussion on the preliminary report of the Air India Express crash featured aviation experts debating the likelihood of human intervention in the fuel switch cutoff, with some suggesting an electrical failure as a more probable cause. The conversation underscored concerns about the report’s ambiguity and called for a more comprehensive investigation. Experts emphasized the necessity of mandatory checks on fuel switches and questioned the accountability of Boeing and Air India.
