In six of India's deadliest air disasters, investigators pinpointed human error

India has witnessed several major air disasters over the years, many of which have resulted in loss of life and triggered important safety reviews.

NEW DELHI:

Most investigations into these accidents have pointed to a combination of human error, non-compliance with procedures, and in some cases, systemic failings in aviation oversight.

On August 7, 2020, Air India Express Flight 1344 from Dubai to Kozhikode skidded off the runway and plunged into a valley while attempting to land in heavy rain. The Boeing 737-800 aircraft was carrying over 180 passengers and crew, of whom 21 lost their lives.

According to the final report by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), the crash occurred due to non-adherence to standard operating procedures by the pilots, particularly a delayed decision to initiate a go-around. The report also pointed to underlying systemic failures as a contributing factor.
