Air India plane crash: Fuel supply cut after takeoff, shows AAIB report, points to apparent confusion

A fuel supply cut to both engines caused the Air India Boeing 787 crash last month, killing 270 people, according to the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau’s (AAIB) preliminary report. Investigators found that the aircraft’s fuel control switches were disengaged seconds after take-off and re-engaged too late. The AAIB did not blame Boeing or engine supplier GE, pointing instead to possible human error amid cockpit confusion.
