Air India Flight 171: human error or scapegoating to protect Boeing?

The investigation into the crash of Air India Flight 171, which occurred about a month ago, is generating a lot of controversy, as it was perhaps inevitable.

After the preliminary analysis of the black box, reports arose that one of the pilots had cut off fuel for both engines right after take-off, leading the plane to crash back to land, killing the crew and all but one passenger.

After watching this video, in my mind, there’s no doubt that the Air India flight 171 crash was done deliberately by one of the two pilots.

If the possibility of human error was not traumatic enough – with some people saying that this was a ‘whitewashing’ of Boeing’s responsibilities, a scapegoating of the pilots… – what followed is even more disturbing.

It’s been reported today that the medical records of the Air India Flight 171 pilot were ‘turned over to investigators’, and that ‘he’d been suffering from depression and other mental health issues’.

The New York Post reported:

“Captain Sumeet Sabharwal, 56, was the lead pilot when the London-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner went down in Ahmedabad on June 12, killing 241 people on board and leaving just one survivor.

Sabharwal, who had more than 15,000 flying hours under his belt at the time of the tragedy, had taken medical leave in recent years due to apparent mental health woes, the Telegraph reported.”

The preliminary report into the crash of Air India Flight  171, a Boeing 787‑8 that went down shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad on June 12, revealed that one pilot asked the other why he “did the cutoff” of the fuel switches, to which the other responded, “I didn’t do it.”… pic.twitter.com/iOB4FGM4Kl

“’I have heard from several Air India pilots who told me he had some depression and mental health issues’, said Mohan Ranganathan, a leading Indian aviation safety expert. ‘He had taken time off from flying in the last three to four years. He had taken medical leave for that’.”

Air India CEO is trying to fight the horrendous optics, and asked his staff ‘not to jump to conclusions’ about this being a human error.
