The aviation industry is reeling from the unexpected crash of Air India's Boeing 787 Dreamliner, described as a 'very surprising' incident by former Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation, Praful Patel. Known for its technological advancements, the aircraft's failure reflects a grave anomaly in its operations.
Speaking to ANI, Patel expressed deep concern over the incident involving flight AI171, which crashed near Ahmedabad airport. 'Our condolences to the victims and their families. This tragedy highlights the importance of a detailed investigation to unearth the reasons behind such an unexpected failure,' he stated.
Pilot and operational protocols are under scrutiny after the aircraft, carrying 242 passengers, issued a 'Mayday' call post-takeoff. The flight, initially smooth from Delhi to Ahmedabad, encountered fatal issues en route to London. Focus now shifts to deciphering clues from the aircraft's black box to determine the mishap's cause, said Patel.
