What could have caused Air India plane to crash in 30 seconds?

What happened exactly to the AI171 trip between Ahmed Abad and London Gatwick on Thursday afternoon will only be revealed through a detailed investigation, but moments after take off can be the most challenging in flying.

Indian investigators will be joined by experts from the United States and the United Kingdom in the coming days, as the authorities are trying to determine the reason for Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner after a short period of take-off of only 1.5 km (0.9 miles) of the runway at Sardar Vallabhai Patel International Airport.

It is the first time that Dreamliner has suffered from 787-8 from a deadly accident since he entered a commercial service in 2011. A disaster on Thursday killed 241 people on board and more on the ground.

The British Broadcasting Corporation spoke to aviation experts as well as pilots in India – some of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity – who regularly fly 787-8s from international airports in India to find out the factors that have criticized the plane in residential buildings in the heart of Ahmed Abad only on its flight.

Dreamliner was transferred from 787-8 by Captain Sumit Sabharwal and his co-star Clav Connder. The two are highly experienced, with more than 9000 hours combined. Mr. Sabharwal after he got more than 22 years of experience as a commercial flight pilot.

The plane was carrying 242 people during a tax on the runway at Ahmed Abad International Airport on Thursday afternoon. The Air India operator said at 13:39 local time (08:09 GMT).

The Minister of Internal Affairs of India, Amit Shah, said that the plane was carrying 100 tons of fuel – practically a full burden – as it came out of Ahmedabad.

The flight organizer in India said, almost immediately after taking off, the cockpit made a Mayday call. The response was not provided by the plane after that. It is not clear what paid Mayday, but the only survivor of the trip told the Indian media that he heard a high uproar while the plane is struggling to gain the height.

BBC Approval showed the verification of the plane that appears to be a residential neighborhood. The final sent data showed that the plane reached a height of 625 feet (109 meters). It is prescribed to go down and the trees and buildings are flooded, before a large explosion appears on the horizon.

One of the pilots said, “There was no time to respond if the engines lost,” said one of the pilots. The BBC shot shots showed that the plane was mobile for 30 seconds.

The plane crashed into a residential area, with pictures showing housing blocks that were severely damaged in a dense area that includes hospitals and official buildings.

It is almost impossible to determine what caused the disaster based on videos of a short flight of the plane.

In the coming days, a complex investigation that includes the black plane’s box – which records aviation data – will begin to check the debris. But the videos that appeared showing the plane are struggling to lift the ground, apparently amid a lack of trend or strength.

One of the reasons for speculation by some experts is the possibility of a very rare dual engine failure. Questions have been raised about whether the plane has published air turbines (RAT), which are backups in emergency situations that begin when the main engines fail to generate power of basic systems.

The dual engine failures were almost facilitated, with the most prominent example of this is a “miracle of Hudson” for the year 2009, when the American Airbus A320 foording the two drivers lost moments of Laguadia airport in New York, but it slipped into safety.

One of the leading BBC pilots told that dual motor failure could also result from fuel pollution or blockage. Aircraft engines depend on the accurate fuel measurement system – if this system is banned, this may lead to hunger and engine closure.

Marko Chan, a former BBC, told no evidence to indicate a dual engine failure based on the available shots.

Mohan Ranganathan, the BBC, told the dual engine failure “a very rare incident.”

GE Aerospace said it is sending a team to India to help the investigation, while Boeing said it provides its full support to the airline.

Another possibility of some experts in India is a bird strike.

It occurs when a plane collides and can be very dangerous for aircraft. In serious cases, engines can lose power if they absorb a bird, as happened in The South Korea Air Create Disaster Who killed 179 people last year.

Experts and pilots familiar with Ahmedabad airport told the BBC that it was “notorious for birds.”

“They are always present,” says Mr. Rannatathan.

Gojarat State, where Ahmedabad is 462 accidents for bird strike over five years, with most of them at Ahmedabad Airport, according to the data of the Ministry of Civil Aviation submitted in Parliament in December 2023.

The Times of India report was martyred in September 2023 with the data of the Airport Authority that noticed 38 strikes in 2022-23 in Ahmed Abad, by 35 % over the past 12 months.

In the 2009 case, a herd of seagulls was taken at a speed of 2700 feet – more than four times the flight of India. In this case, Indian pilots had no height or time to maneuver.

However, a great pilot said that the bird’s blow is rarely disastrous “unless they affect both engines.”

Three experts who spoke to the BBC have suggested verification that the disaster may have occurred because the paintings that were not extended during takeoff – although the other pilots and analysts have stabbed it.

The paintings play a vital role while taking off, helping a plane to generate maximum lifting at lower speeds.

If it is not properly extended, a fully loaded plane will struggle – carrying passengers, heavy fuel for a long trip, and hot conditions – in order to shine.

In Ahmed Abad, where temperatures are approaching 40 ° C (104F) on Thursday, the insomnia was to demand higher flap settings and a greater engine direction, one of the pilots told the BBC. In such circumstances, a small composition error can have severe consequences.

CCTV shots that appeared late Thursday afternoon showed the plane taking off from Ahmedabad, struggling to rise, and then slowly descended before collapse.

But the boot roll with the winged paintings would lead to warnings of the 787 -seed warning system, and alerting the flight crew to an insecure composition, according to a pilot, BBC spoke.

Mr. Chan told the former BBC former, checking that the shots that have emerged so far are very distorted so that they do not confirm with certainty whether the paintings have been extended, but said that such a mistake would be “very unusual.”

“The panels are placed by the pilots themselves, before taking off, and there are many examination lists and procedures to check the preparation,” Chan said. “This would indicate a possible human error if the panels are not properly adjusted.”
