Air India Crash Report Delayed Pending Engine Analysis and Investigation UpdatesPreviousNext

The final investigation report on the Air India Boeing 787 crash that killed 260 people is delayed due to ongoing engine examinations by GE Aerospace in the United States. The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) plans to issue an interim status report on the crash's first anniversary, with the final report expected within three months. Additionally, a pilot consultant withdrew from the probe over process disagreements, though officials state experts contribute as needed during the investigation.
