Aviation expert Sanat Kaul has raised serious concerns over a possible technical fault in Air India’s Boeing 787 after the tragic AI 171 crash in Ahmedabad. The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau’s preliminary report reveals both engines lost thrust just 90 seconds after take-off, with cockpit audio showing pilots confused about a sudden fuel cutoff. The expert dismisses pilot error and questions how the switch got turned off. Meanwhile, Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu urges caution, stating it’s too early to conclude and that the final report is awaited. Families of the victims continue to demand answers and accountability.
