Campbell Wilson, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the domestic airline company Air India, said in the Plan Crash case on Monday that according to what has been said in the initial report released by the Bureau of Aircraft Accident Investigation, the initial report, no mechanical or maintenance problems were found in the aircraft or engine, and all mandatory maintenance work was completed. According to ANI news, he further said that there was no problem in the quality of fuel and there was no abnormalities in the take-off role. The pilots had passed the mandatory flight-pre-breedleizer test and no observation about their health status.
The plane crash took place on 12 June
Addressing Air India employees in an email, Campbell Wilson stressed that the report did not detect the causes of Air India’s Boeing 787-8 aircraft accident on June 12, nor has been recommended, killing 260 people. The CEO of Air India said that the preliminary report has neither given any reason nor any suggestion, so I urge everyone not to make any conclusions in a hurry as the investigation is yet to be completed.
Suitable for all airlines
According to the news, Campbell Wilson said that I would also like to remind that with extreme caution and under the supervision of DGCA, each Boeing 787 in our fleet was investigated within a few days of the accident of 787 aircraft and all were found suitable for service. We are all continuing necessary investigations, and we will continue any new investigation suggested by the authorities.
What was said in the initial report
The preliminary report of the AAIB released on Friday stated that both engines of the aircraft were taken from “run” to “cutoff”, resulting in fuel supply. The report states that in the voice recording of the cockpit, one pilot is heard asking why he did the cutoff, while the other pilot refused to do so. The preliminary report stated that the aircraft gained a maximum recorded air speed of 180 not IAS at around 08:08:42 UTC and immediately after that, the engine 1 and engine 2’s fuel cutoff switch switched from one run to cutoff positions with a interval of 01 seconds. The engine N1 and N2 began to decrease with their take-off values as soon as the fuel supply to the engines were closed.
