Why cockpit audio deepens the mystery of Air India crash
A preliminary report on the recent Air India crash has revealed that fuel cut-off switches were flipped shortly after takeoff, deepening the mystery surrounding the incident. The unexpected activation of these switches is a critical finding, as it deviates from standard operating procedures and raises questions about potential causes, including mechanical failure, pilot error, or external interference. Investigators are now focusing on analyzing the cockpit voice recordings and flight data to understand the sequence of events leading up to the switch activation and determine the ultimate cause of the crash. This discovery adds a new layer of complexity to the investigation.
