Ahmedabad Air Crash: Inside the mystery of 10 -second – what was actually brought to AI 171? , Bharat News
New Delhi: The deadly accident of Air India Flight AI 171 has attracted intensive attention to a brief but decisive sequence in the cockpit – Ten seconds that can explain how a regular takeoff in the disaster ended. As investigators excavated the timeline, a report by Bloomberg states that unexpected action and delay during this window is now central to understand what went wrong with Boeing’s advanced 787 Dreamliner.On 12 June, Flight AI 171 left for London with 242 people to Ahmedabad for London. Both pilots, senior captain Sumate Sabarwal and Junior Co-Pilot Clive Kundar, were approved for duty and the initial climb of the aircraft appeared to be normal. But within seconds, the sudden loss of engine power set a series of events that the crew could not heal despite their efforts.
Unexplain 10 seconds
• Just three seconds after the takeoff, 787 Dreamliner reached its maximum recorded aircraft. • Both engine fuel switches were unnecessarily set to cutoff within a second, closing the fuel flow to the engines. According to Bloomberg’s reporting, there was confusion in the cockpit, with responsibility to move the fuel switch in each pilot. • The first fuel switch was delayed by 10 seconds before reset, and four seconds before restoring the second. • The aircraft was very low and was slow to rule for engines. • The importance of delay of the upcoming 10-second cannot be overstated. As retired FAA Inspector Michael Daniel told Bloomberg, “10 seconds are important because the aircraft was very low and was very slow and to achieve the thrust to re -echo to re -increase the engines.” • Suddenly shutdown triggers a barrage of the cockpit alarm, possibly a psychological “shocking effect” and transient freeze in the pilot response. • Emergency systems such as Ram Air Turbine (RAT) provided minimum strength, but only for the control of the captain, forced the rapid transfer of control from co-pilot to captain. • Despite resetting the switch, the crew ran out of time; A “May day” was sent, but the aircraft crashed outside the airport, killing 260 people.The preliminary report cited by Bloomberg has left investigators with more questions than the answer. While the CEO of Air India said no discrepancies were found in the fleet-wide safety check, what happened inside the cockpit during those important seconds. Human factors – including confusion, sensitive overload and psychological shock – are now under close investigation, as experts want to determine if they play an important role in delayed delayed flight.
