  • Air India Plane Crash: Black Box Suggests Pilot Shut Off Fuel Supply

    A U.S. investigation into the June 12th Indian Airlines crash, which killed over 270, suggests the pilot(s) may have deliberately cut fuel to both engines. Citing black box recordings, a CCTV report indicates the focus has shifted from technical malfunction to possible crew error. Indian Airlines hasn’t responded. The crash, involving a Boeing 787-8 shortly after takeoff, was initially attributed to disrupted fuel supply. However, experts find intentional engine shutdown unlikely, given the necessary actions and illogic immediately after takeoff.
