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.
That’s very true but the report seem to paint Bonin As just simply making a mistake. He just defaulted to the wrong mode in a panic which is why he reacted the wrong way to the stall.
Even if they restarted the engines pretty quick would they have managed to avoid the crash?
Still I highly doubt this was a pilot suicide.
