What Caused Air India Flight 171 To Crash? Probe Focuses On Engine Thrust, Wing Flaps, Landing Gear

With one black box now retrieved from the wreckage of the Air India plane which crashed in western India's Gujarat, investigators are looking at whether the plane’s engine thrust and wing flaps failed, and why the landing gear remained open. Flight AI171 issued a mayday call to air traffic control moments after takeoff from Ahmedabad, having barely left the runway before descending and crashing into a building, killing all but one of the 242 people onboard. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
