No issue found in Boeing fleet's fuel-control switches: A-I
Business Standard
|July 23, 2025
Air India on Tuesday said the airline and its low-cost subsidiary, Air India Express, had completed precautionary inspections on the locking mechanism of the fuel-control switches on all their Boeing 787 and Boeing 737 aircraft, and no issues were found.
With this, the two airlines have complied with the directives of the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued on July 14, Air India said in a statement. The airline has formally communicated this to the regulator.
The DGCA directive followed the preliminary report released on July 12 by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), which is probing the June 12 crash of Air India flight AI171 that killed 260 people. The report found that both engine fuel-control switches, which regulate the flow of fuel into the aircraft engines on Boeing 787s, had transitioned from "Run" to "Cutoff" just seconds after takeoff from Ahmedabad, resulting in a dual engine failure.
