Fuel to Air India Plane Was Cut Off Before Crash, Report Says
It appears that that Air India crash might have been caused by Pilot Error. While it’s still early to be conclusive the black boxes do seem to confirm that there were no mechanical issues and that the fuel was cut off and caught the attention of the pilots.
The captain had 10,000 hours and the first officer had 3,400.
It’s probably specific to region because the majority of people in my general region for several states is “they’re going to hell.” Obviously the victims already were in hell or it wouldn’t have happened, and I find this attitude particularly disturbing, but I’m the obvious outlier, here.
