Air India crash in Ahmedabad kills 241

Ahmedabad, June 12
(IANS): An Air India
Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner
carrying 242 people
crashed immediately after
take-off from Ahmedabad
airport this afternoon, in
one of the worst ever avia
tion tragedies in India.
There were 232 passen
gers and 10 crew on the
flight which was headed to
London.
One person -- the pas
senger of seat No. 11A-
survived the crash, offi
cials said.
The plane slammed into
a hostel for doctors of a
medical college, killing
five students. Visuals from
the crash site show debris
had pierced through the
wall of a dining hall of the
hostel, with food still visi
ble on some of the plates.
Avideo of the aircraft
flying low and struggling
to gain altitude shows the
plane slamming the
ground and exploding in a
massive ball of fire at 1.38
pm. It was loaded with
fuel since it was flying a
long distance to London.
Shortly after take-off,
the pilot sent out a mayday
call. There was no
response after that to
repeated calls from the air
traffic
