The cockpit recording of dialogue between the two pilots of the Air India flight 171 indicates the captain cut the flow of fuel to the plane's engines, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
“The first officer who was flying the Boeing 787 Dreamliner asked the more-experienced captain why he moved the switches to the “cutoff” position after it climbed off the runway, these people said,” the Journal reported. “The first officer expressed surprise and then panicked, these people said, while the captain seemed to remain calm.”
The report cited people familiar with U.S. officials' early assessment of evidence uncovered in the investigation into the June 12 crash of the 787 Dreamliner in Ahmedabad, India, that killed 260 people.
The AAIB's preliminary report said the fuel switches had switched from run to cutoff a second apart just after takeoff, but it did not say how they were flipped.
India's AAIB, Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Ministry of Civil Aviation, Air India and two unions representing Indian pilots did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the Wall Street Journal report. Boeing declined to comment.
@mssJulie La religión es otra forma de ejercer poder sobre las masas. No tiene nada diferente a la politica. Precisamente por ello es que ha sido la causante de la mayoría de las guerras.
Recomiendo leer Sapiens de Yuval Noah Harari para entenderla ese punto de vista.
Sigue llamando gente desde teléfonos regulares, en nombre de @Tigo_Colombia, para decir que uno se ha ganado canales adicionales. Con qué intención son estas llamadas?
