Probe of fuel switch finds 'no issues'
Bangkok Post
|July 18, 2025
Air India’s inspection of the locking feature on the fuel control switches of its existing Boeing 787 aircraft found no issues, an internal communication circulated within the airline said.
-
The switches have come under scrutiny following last month’s crash of an Air India jet that killed 260 people after a preliminary probe by Indian investigators found that they had flipped from run position to cutoff shortly after takeoff.
India’s aviation regulator earlier this week ordered the country’s airlines to investigate the locking feature on the switches of several Boeing models.
The order came after Boeing notified operators that the fuel switch locks on its jets were safe.
