NEW DELHI: After the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau’s (AAIB) preliminary report into the fatal Air India crash was made public last week, airlines have started checking the locking mechanism in the fuel switches of Boeing 787 aircraft.
The initial report into the Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad mentioned about fuel cut-off to both engines shortly after take-off, leading to the deadly crash. Experts have already said the locking feature of the switches may have malfunctioned.
The AAIB report also said there was no “recommended action” for either Boeing, the maker of the aircraft, or GE, the engine manufacturer, at this time.
