✈️ What they don’t tell you about being a pilot in India…
Behind every flight you board, there’s a story of grit, long hours, and unwavering focus.
It’s time the truth took off.
🧵 VT-ANB Black Box Anomaly — The 10-Minute Silence in the Prelim report on recording quality and missing 10 min.
1/
🚨 In aviation, every second of data matters.
That’s why cockpit recorders must keep recording for 10 minutes after losing aircraft power — even after a crash.
It’s called RIPS — Recorder Independent Power Supply.

🚨 TCMA: Boeing’s Silent Software Saboteur?
From FAA exemptions to dual engine failures — the 787’s TCMA system reveals a hidden crisis in trust, automation, and airworthiness. 🧵
1/
In 2016, the FAA quietly granted Exemption 17112 to Boeing.
Why?
Because the 787’s TCMA system — meant to prevent uncommanded thrust — didn’t work properly on some engines.
⚠️ The system could fail to stop runaway thrust.
But that’s not the whole story.
🚨 #AI171 | CVR Data Leak = Possible Data Protection Law Violation
AAIB’s appeal fails to confirm if cockpit voice data was secured.
Yet foreign media published CVR secrets & crew actions.
Leaked CVR audio = leaked identifiable personal data of the flight crew.
⚖️ Under India’s DPDP Act 2023 (Sec 8(5)), this may be a legal breach.
💰 Penalty: up to ₹250 Cr for failing to prevent a personal data leak.
How? Via mishandled golden chassis transfer. 🧵

Breaking @themojostory - another safety critical issue on Boeing 787 flagged in this FAA issued directive on 16th June 2025 ( four days after crash of Air India 171) on leaky faucets and possible impact on electric hardware . The safety directive superseded a 2024 bulletin on same. But of course let’s still act as if all of these bulletins are non issues . Why look at the plane when you can simply blame the pilot as the default explanation
Because one can’t be a mute spectator to what is happening with regards to the narrative around the AI171 crash and its interim report. My letter to @MoCA_GoI Minister Sh. @RamMNK
Pushing the ‘pilot error’ theory above all else in the Air India 171 crash is an organised attempt to shield the big fish of the aviation world from action/scrutiny.
Someone needed to say it.
I did on my show tonight.
The judge asked Atul, Pls pay 5L and I will settle the case, or else I will go with the process.
A traffic police guy asks you to pay a bribe or he will register a challan.
Everybody knows for an Indian citizen the worst nightmare is dealing with the government. So everybody threatens him with the process. Not the penalty or the result. But they threaten you with the process. This is one of the biggest issues of living in India.

Uttar Pradesh Govt is saying it will pay up to ₹8 Lakh to Influencers to promote the govt.
This is Legalized Bribery.
From Tax Payer's Money.
Any influencer who does this should be publicly shamed.
There is genuine fear in India that if people don’t get off really quickly the plane will take off again with them stranded inside.
Nothing else explains how people disembark on Indian flights.
Many @airindia pilots can't get a single day off, yet someone who falsely claimed to be the first female pilot to cross the North Pole received extended leave to pursue an MBA at @Columbia. #DoubleStandards
