Page Description
A fatal crash triggered by a misunderstood fuel switch. Explore how system design, communication failures, and cockpit confusion led to disaster.
A switch meant to shut down failed engines became a silent destroyer.
On June 12, 2025, Air India Flight 171 crashed just seconds after takeoff from Ahmedabad. All but one of the 242 people on board were killed, along with 19 individuals on the ground, resulting in 260 casualties in total
Investigators discovered that both engine fuel control switches had been turned off — and though one pilot tried to reactivate them, it was tragically too late The voices in the cockpit captured the confusion as the crew realized what had happened, turning a safety tool into a deadly malfunction
This was not a lone technical glitch — but a catastrophic breakdown in cockpit design, training, and communication. Here, we examine how one hidden failure point can unravel an entire system — and how every layer from hardware to human interaction must be scrutinized.
Een schakelaar bedoeld om een motor veilig uit te schakelen werd een stille vernietiger.
Op 12 juni 2025 stortte Air India-vlucht 171 enkele seconden na het opstijgen neer bij Ahmedabad. Van de 242 mensen aan boord overleefde slechts één persoon. 19 mensen op de grond kwamen ook om het leven, wat het totaal aantal slachtoffers op 260 brengt.
Onderzoekers ontdekten dat beide brandstofschakelaars van de motoren waren uitgeschakeld — en hoewel een van de piloten nog probeerde ze opnieuw te activeren, kwam die poging te laat. De cockpitopnames onthulden de paniek en verwarring op het moment dat de bemanning besefte wat er mis was gegaan. Een systeem dat veiligheid moest bieden, werd zelf de oorzaak van de ramp.
Dit was geen op zichzelf staand technisch defect — maar een catastrofale keten van fouten in cockpitontwerp, opleiding en menselijke interactie. Op deze pagina onderzoeken we hoe één zwakke schakel in een complex systeem kan leiden tot volledige instorting — en waarom elk niveau, van techniek tot training, kritisch moet worden bekeken.

Three Seconds to Disaster”:
The Story Behind Air India Flight AI 117Tragic Dual Engine Failure
On what began as an ordinary day, Air India Flight AI117 prepared for takeoff from Ahmedabad Airport.
The skies were clear, the aircraft—well-maintained and staffed by experienced pilots—was ready for its scheduled journey. Everything appeared routine. But within seconds of liftoff, something unthinkable happened.
A Smooth Takeoff Turns Sudden
At 08:08 G M T, the aircraft began its takeoff roll down the runway, accelerating steadily.
As the nose lifted and the wheels left the ground, the plane climbed with expected power.
By the third second after liftoff, it had reached a speed of around 180 knots—typical and well within safe parameters.
But right at that moment—just three seconds into the flight—the normalcy ended.
A Critical, Sudden Action
In the cockpit, both pilots were carrying out post-takeoff procedures when, inexplicably, a critical error occurred.
The fuel control switches for Engine 1 and Engine 2—the controls that allow fuel to flow to the engines—were moved from RUN to CUTOFF, almost simultaneously.
Within about one second, both switches had been thrown, one after the other. This action abruptly severed the fuel supply to both engines.
It wasn’t a mechanical fault. It wasn’t turbulence. It wasn’t a system glitch. Something, or someone, had physically moved both switches.
“Why Did You Cut Off?”
In those next few moments, the cockpit voice recorder captured a tense and confused exchange between the pilots.
“Why did you cut off?” one asked, alarm in his voice.
“I didn’t,” came the immediate reply.
This short but chilling dialogue reveals a moment of sheer disbelief. Neither pilot appeared to understand what had just occurred.
Neither had knowingly taken the action that caused both engines to shut down in mid-air—just seconds into the flight.
The Engines Wind Down
With no fuel flowing, the aircraft’s engines began winding down rapidly. The engine speeds—monitored as N1 and N2—dropped sharply.
The aircraft, now without thrust, was essentially gliding. But it wasn’t designed to glide, especially not this soon after takeoff, and especially not at low altitude.
Almost immediately, the aircraft’s emergency backup system kicked in.
The Ram Air Turbine a small wind-powered device used to generate emergency hydraulic and electrical power—deployed automatically.
This helped maintain minimal control and instrumentation, but couldn’t restart the engines or stop the descent.

1 Air India aircraft lost power after fuel cutoff
©Reuters
An investigation is underway into the Air India plane bound for London Gatwick that crashed on June 12, shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad Airport in India, killing 241 of the 242 people on board, along with 33 individuals on the ground.
A preliminary report by the Indian Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, obtained by CNN, reveals that a disruption in fuel supply to the engines caused the Boeing 787 Dreamliner to lose power and crash.
According to the report, the fuel control switches for both engines were moved from ‘RUN’ to ‘CUTOFF’ just seconds apart, cutting off fuel at a speed of 180 knots. Data from the black box recorders showed one pilot questioning the other about the unexpected shutdown — to which the second pilot replied that he had not done it.
The crew reversed the switches and attempted to restart the engines, but the aircraft had already begun to lose altitude.
In the final moments captured on the cockpit voice recorder, one of the pilots shouts “MAYDAY” as they attempt to restart the engines. Air traffic control, however, received no further communication and watched the plane crash in the distance.
The report has not yet determined whether the switches were flipped intentionally or as the result of a mechanical malfunction.
While air travel remains one of the safest forms of transportation, the crash of Air India 171 is a stark reminder that zero risk does not exist.
Despite ever-advancing technology, the long list of aviation disasters in commercial history continues to confront us with grim truths. Few survive such accidents — the destructive force of a plane crash leaves little room for chance. Tragically, some of the most horrifying air disasters in history have happened without warning and in mere seconds.
Toestel Air India verloor vermogen na brandstofuitval
©Reuters
Er wordt onderzoek gedaan naar het Air India vliegtuig met bestemming Londen Gatwick dat op 12 juni neerstortte, direct na het opstijgen vanaf Ahmedabad Airport in India, waarbij op één na alle 242 mensen aan boord en 33 op de grond omkwamen. Uit een voorlopig rapport van het Indiase Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, in handen van CNN, blijkt dat een onderbreking in de brandstoftoevoer naar de motoren de oorzaak was dat de Boeing 787 Dreamliner vermogen verloor en neerstortte.
Volgens het rapport werden de brandstofschakelaars van beide motoren slechts enkele seconden na elkaar omgedraaid van de stand ‘RUN’ naar ‘CUTOFF’, waardoor de motoren geen brandstof meer kregen toen het vliegtuig 180 knopen bereikte. Uit gegevens van de black box recorders bleek dat de ene piloot de andere ondervroeg over de onverwachte uitschakeling, waarop de tweede antwoordde dat hij het niet had gedaan.
De bemanning zette de schakelaars om en probeerde de motoren te herstarten, maar het vliegtuig begon al hoogte te verliezen.
In de laatste momenten die zijn opgenomen op de cockpit voice recorder, roept een van de piloten ‘MAYDAY’ terwijl de motoren opnieuw proberen te starten. De luchtverkeersleiding kreeg echter geen reactie meer en zag het vliegtuig in de verte neerstorten.
In het rapport is nog niet vastgesteld of de brandstofschakelaar opzettelijk werd omgedraaid of dat dit het gevolg was van een mechanisch defect.
Ondanks het feit dat vliegtuigen een van de veiligste vormen van transport zijn, herinnert de crash van Air India ons er duidelijk aan dat een nulrisico onmogelijk is. Zelfs met de steeds beter wordende technologie, blijven de lange lijst van vliegtuigrampen in de annalen van de commerciële luchtvaart ons met grimmige herinneringen confronteren. Helaas overleven maar weinigen een vliegtuigongeluk, zo destructief is zo’n gebeurtenis. En er zijn een aantal afschuwelijke vliegtuigongelukken geweest over de hele wereld.

Air India 171: Fuel Cutoff Switches Were Flipped – No System Failed. So What Happened?
✈️ BREAKING: Both Engines Shut Down After Takeoff — and It Wasn’t a Technical Failure.
New revelations in the Air India Flight 171 crash point to something deeply unsettling: the fuel cutoff switches were found in the ‘Off’ position just seconds after takeoff—an action that can only be done manually by a human in the cockpit.
There were no engine issues, no system failures, no software bugs. So what really happened? Was this a mistake—or something more intentional?
In this video, we break down the forensic timeline of the crash, the clues from the RAT deployment, and expert insight from Captain Steve—who believes this is not a systems failure, but a human one. And the biggest question now is not what failed, but why.
🟥 This isn’t just about technology anymore. It’s about the silence inside the cockpit—and the one thing aviation safety has yet to fully confront: the human mind.

If no system failed, how did disaster strike?
This video dives into the chilling detail that the fuel cutoff switches were manually flipped — not by accident, and not by system failure. What does that mean for our understanding of Air India 171?
Als er geen systeem faalde, hoe kon het dan toch misgaan?
In deze video komt een verontrustend detail aan het licht: de brandstofafsluiters werden handmatig omgezet — niet per ongeluk en niet door een technisch mankement. Wat zegt dat over wat er écht met Air India 171 is gebeurd?
Educational: This video is essential viewing
🔍 Summary of Sharp Warnings in the Video
This video delivers a series of urgent and unsettling warnings:
Manual Action Without Technical Justification:
The fuel cutoff switches were physically flipped without any system failure to justify it. This raises serious questions about human decision-making in the cockpit.No Warning Lights, No Alerts:
The aircraft’s systems gave no failure warnings. That means the pilots had no technical reason to shut off fuel — suggesting a deliberate or unexplained act.Disturbing Silence in the Investigation:
The video highlights that despite such a critical event, official explanations remain vague, and responsibility is unclear. There is a lack of transparency and urgency in confronting the implications.Questions of Training, Oversight, or Intent:
The narrator warns that if such an action can happen without failure or consequence, it points to severe gaps in aviation training, possible intentional sabotage, or institutional blind spots.A Broader Systemic Concern:
The video doesn’t isolate this case — it suggests this incident is part of a larger pattern where systems remain silent, investigations stall, and lives are lost with no accountability.🔹 English – Additional Human Moment
Near the end of the video, an aviation student receives a call from his father — who, overwhelmed by the emotional weight of the case, is considering taking his own life. The instructor immediately stops the class, gives the student a week off, and makes sure both the student and his father receive help.
This powerful moment underscores the human cost behind every tragedy, and the importance of compassion even in technical settings.
🔍 Samenvatting van de Scherpe Waarschuwingen in de Video
Deze video brengt een reeks urgente en verontrustende waarschuwingen naar voren:
Handmatige actie zonder technische reden:
De brandstofafsluiters zijn handmatig uitgeschakeld, zonder enige systeemfout die dat zou rechtvaardigen. Dit roept ernstige vragen op over menselijk handelen in de cockpit.Geen waarschuwingslampjes, geen alarmen:
Er waren geen systeemwaarschuwingen. De piloten hadden dus geen technische reden om de brandstof af te sluiten — wat wijst op een opzettelijke of onverklaarbare handeling.Verontrustende stilte in het onderzoek:
Ondanks de ernst van het incident blijven officiële verklaringen vaag, en is onduidelijk wie verantwoordelijk is. De video bekritiseert het gebrek aan transparantie en daadkracht.Vragen over training, toezicht of intentie:
Als zo’n handeling kan plaatsvinden zonder technische aanleiding of gevolgen, wijst dat op ernstige tekortkomingen in pilotenopleiding, mogelijke sabotage, of institutionele blinde vlekken.Een bredere systeemwaarschuwing:
De video ziet dit niet als een geïsoleerd geval. Het past volgens de spreker in een groter patroon, waarin systemen zwijgen, onderzoeken vastlopen, en levens verloren gaan zonder verantwoording.🔹 Aanvulling: Menselijk Moment
Aan het einde van de video krijgt een luchtvaartstudent een telefoontje van zijn vader — die, overweldigd door de emotionele impact van het incident, overweegt om uit het leven te stappen. De instructeur onderbreekt direct de les, geeft de student een week vrij, en zorgt ervoor dat zowel de student als zijn vader hulp krijgen.
Dit aangrijpende moment benadrukt de menselijke tol achter elk luchtvaartdrama, en het belang van medemenselijkheid, zelfs in een technische leeromgeving.

Air India crash report raises questions about mental health care for pilots
15 jul 2025
New and troubling questions are emerging about what caused the Air India crash that killed 260 people. A preliminary investigation ruled out mechanical issues and found that the plane’s fuel cutoff switches had been flipped seconds after takeoff. Experts believe it’s most likely that one of the pilots was responsible. William Brangham discussed more with aviation correspondent Miles O’Brien.

‘Suicide by pilot’: Shocking evidence emerges in Air India crash tragedy investigation
Educational: This video is essential viewing
Here are the nine notable mental-health and fatigue-related incidents referenced in the PBS NewsHour and Indian Express discussions surrounding the Air India AI171 crash and its fallout
Pilot panic attack post-crash
A pilot scheduled to fly on the same day as the crash experienced a panic attack and removed himself from dutyIn-flight engine failure event
Another pilot described managing a sudden engine failure mid-air, relying solely on training under extreme stressFuel leak and possible fire scare on landing
A former cabin crew member recalled a major mechanical scare upon landing — a fuel leak close to fire riskHealth collapse before takeoff
A pilot collapsed during pre-flight checks, delaying a Bengaluru–Delhi flight — raising fresh concerns about crew health protocolsEngine failure incident with cabin crew stress
Crew members expressed lingering anxiety after witnessing in-flight engine troubles, underscoring the emotional weight of such eventsMultiple stress- or fatigue-related health emergencies
Numerous pilots and cabin crew have faced issues ranging from panic symptoms, collapse, and near-misses, even APs and ALPA express concern +15.Stress after multiple rapid flights
Pilots noted that back-to-back flights, especially after a tragedy like AI171, elevate chronic anxiety and psychological burdenPilots hesitant to use mental-health programs
DGCA-introduced peer support programs exist, but many staff fear disclosing stress could result in grounding without payDeaths from medical emergencies amid overwork
An Air India Express pilot died of cardiac arrest post-flight, and another collapsed in the cockpit — spotlighting serious fatigue risks
All nine underscore the urgent need for more robust mental‑health care, fatigue management, and confidential, non‑punitive support systems within aviation — especially in the wake of high‑profile tragedies.
The discussion does reference Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 as a similar case.
A leading aviation expert in the video points out that this isn’t the first time a pilot has potentially been behind the controls during a sudden incident:
“Pilot-induced crashes are rare, but not unprecedented … Then you have Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, Germanwings, EgyptAir Flight 990, and the one in China a few years back.”
So alongside MH370 (the 2014 disappearance), the video compares the AI171 case with other tragic events where pilot actions — intentional or otherwise — played a suspected role.
These parallels heighten concerns that we need to look beyond technical failure and into mental health, cockpit protocols, and systemic oversight when analyzing this crash.
The MH370 disappearance is separately cited as another tragic case where pilot behavior, human factors, or deliberate action are considered alongside technical failure. However, it is not one of the original nine specific incidents listed as mental-health related events by Air India pilots in the context of fatigue or stress (like panic attacks, engine failure scares, or collapses).
Instead, the video—and the broader discussion in aviation circles—parallels AI171’s cockpit switch incident with other high-profile cases involving pilot intent or sudden cockpit anomalies, including:
MH370 disappearance
Germanwings Flight 9525
EgyptAir Flight 990
A mysterious China crash mentioned briefly
So, while MH370 is not one of the nine fatigue or stress incidents, it is referenced as part of the same worrying pattern of pilot-related anomalies and potential mental-health implications

787 Dreamliner Crash in Ahmedabad: Air India Flight 171 Crash Explained
18 jul 2025 #AirIndia171 #PlaneCrashAnalysis #Boeing787
On June 12, 2025, Air India Flight 171, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner with 242 souls on board, took off from Ahmedabad bound for London Gatwick. What should have been a routine 9-hour journey turned into one of the most mysterious and devastating air disasters in recent years.
Just seconds after liftoff, both engines unexpectedly lost power. The cockpit voice recorder captured the stunned pilots as they struggled to understand why the fuel switches had cut off — an action neither admits to making. Despite emergency attempts to restart the engines, the aircraft crashed into a medical complex, killing 241 onboard and 19 people on the ground. Only one passenger survived.
Investigators from India, the U.S., and several other countries have focused on the possibility of electrical or mechanical failure, a software bug, or even inadvertent human error. Could a known issue with fuel switch design — previously flagged by the FAA — have played a role?
In this video, we break down the final moments of Flight AI171, explore the technical anomalies, and examine the possible causes behind this modern aviation tragedy. Join us for a detailed look at the crash that challenged assumptions about the safety of the Boeing Dreamliner.

Onderzoekers van Boeing onthullen eindelijk de man achter de crash van Air India 171!
19 jul 2025
Na maanden van stilte hebben onderzoekers van Boeing eindelijk de man ontmaskerd die centraal stond in de schokkende Air India 171-ramp. Wat gebeurde er nu echt in die cockpit? Waarom verloor een geavanceerde Dreamliner enkele seconden na het opstijgen alle vermogen, waardoor 241 levens op het spel stonden? En hoe kon een verborgen softwarefout – bekend bij Boeing en de FAA sinds 2018 – een routinevlucht veranderen in een wereldwijde tragedie?
In deze exclusieve documentaire analyseren we het onderzoek stap voor stap:
Waarom vielen beide motoren tegelijk uit, ondanks dat de piloot geen input gaf?
Hoe omzeilde een kritieke “brandstofwissel” alle beveiligingen en schakelde het vliegtuig uit?
Heeft Boeing waarschuwingen over dit dodelijke risico genegeerd?
Wie gaf ECHT de opdracht – en wie probeerde het te verdoezelen?
Zie hoe families antwoorden eisen, functionarissen zich haasten om te reageren en Wall Street juicht, terwijl de waarheid verborgen blijft. Met nieuw bewijs van wereldwijde toezichthouders en klokkenluiders onthullen we de reeks mislukkingen, ontkenningen en schokkende beslissingen die tot de crash van Air India 171 hebben geleid.
Als je de waarheid wilt horen – niet alleen de krantenkoppen – dan mag je deze video niet missen.

Pilot Finally Solved the Air India 171 Crash Mystery – And It Changes Everything
16 jul 2025 #airindiacrash #boeing #airindia
It was Air India’s most advanced aircraft. Fresh out of maintenance. Clear weather. No mechanical issues. No warning signs. And yet, just three minutes after takeoff, Flight 171 vanished from radar—killing 241 people.
The black box revealed almost nothing. No signs of engine failure. No distress calls. Just one chilling message locked in the data logs:
“Manual override denied. Environment mismatch.”
For weeks, investigators were stumped. But across the world, a retired Boeing pilot spotted something everyone else missed.
He had seen this before.
Four years earlier, his jet had entered what he now calls “Ghost Mode”—a nightmare scenario where a plane thinks it’s still on the ground… even while it’s flying.
And that changes everything.
Because if he’s right, Flight 171 didn’t crash because something broke.
It crashed because its own brain refused to believe it had ever left the runway.
What follows is a story of ignored warnings, overlooked systems, and the tiniest sensor most passengers have never heard of—one that may hold the power to bring down a plane.
This isn’t just about Flight 171.
It’s about what happens when automation turns against the people it’s meant to protect.
Welcome to mindgap—where forgotten clues, buried data, and one pilot’s memory come together to unlock the truth.

It was a perfect day.
A brand-new Boeing 787 lifted off from Ahmedabad’s runway, bound for London.
Then—just thirty seconds later—it dropped from the sky.
The crash of Air India Flight 171 killed 260 people, including 19 innocent students on the ground. But one man survived. And the story he lived through is more disturbing than anyone imagined.
From the outside, there was no warning: clear skies, no mechanical faults, no distress call. But when investigators opened the black box, it revealed something chilling. A system failure so bizarre—and so preventable—that it sent shockwaves through the entire aviation world.
Fuel control switches shifted on their own.
Pilots shouted in disbelief.
And a critical FAA safety alert from 2018—ignored.
This wasn’t just an accident.
This was a fatal mistake buried under years of warnings, overlooked inspections, and corporate silence.
So who’s responsible?
And why did Boeing and Air India both miss what could’ve saved 260 lives?
The answer, hidden inside that black box, is darker than anyone expected.

Air India-vlucht 171: sabotage of tragische fout?
Een schokkend rapport van The Wall Street Journal suggereert dat de gezagvoerder van Air India 171 mogelijk opzettelijk de brandstoftoevoer heeft geblokkeerd, wat leidde tot een uitschakeling van twee motoren, slechts enkele seconden na het opstijgen. De cockpitvoicerecorder (CVR) registreert een piloot die vraagt: “Waarom heb je de brandstoftoevoer geblokkeerd?” — en het antwoord: “Ik heb het niet gedaan.”
In deze video legt gezagvoerder Stan Dunn de voorlopige bevindingen, de waarschijnlijkheid van een storing aan twee motoren, menselijke factoren en de mogelijke oorzaken van dit incident uit.

Nieuwe CVR-onthullingen van de WSJ
Waarom brandstofverontreiniging, vogelaanvaring of mechanisch falen onwaarschijnlijk zijn
Geestelijke gezondheid van piloten en eerdere incidenten zoals Germanwings 9525
De mechanica van het brandstofregelsysteem van de Boeing 787
Wat dit zou kunnen betekenen voor de veiligheid en verantwoordingsplicht in de luchtvaart
Als dit bevestigd wordt, zou dit de tiende bekende zelfmoord/moord door een piloot in de moderne luchtvaartgeschiedenis zijn.
