What really happened to the Air India Dreamliner that crashed on June 12? After a month of painstaking investigation, the black box data is finally in the hands of investigators, and the world awaits shocking details about the worst plane crash in the last decade. Yes, you read that right – the plane literally fell from the sky, and the death toll is huge, but official data is yet to be released.
Black Boxes – The Key to the Mystery
Two black boxes, the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder, were found in the wreckage and on the roof of a building near the crash site. The investigation is led by Indian experts with support from the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The data from these devices is expected to shed light on what exactly happened in the final moments of the flight.
Why Did It Take Almost Two Weeks to Retrieve the Data?
Here’s where things get fishy! Three independent aviation safety experts told Reuters that the decision to start retrieving data from the black boxes was unusually late. Normally, this is done immediately because the whole world is watching and waiting. There was speculation that the black boxes might be sent to the US for analysis, but India has not yet decided where the analysis will take place. US expert Anthony Brickhouse said this is unusual and that in major crashes, data retrieval usually starts right away.
What Is Known About the Crash?
The plane began losing altitude after reaching about 3,000 meters. Investigators suspect the problem could have been with engine thrust, and the Wall Street Journal reported that the Dreamliner might have had an emergency power generator engaged at the moment of the crash. Most plane crashes result from multiple factors, so a preliminary report is expected about 30 days after the crash.
Why Does This Matter?
This tragedy is the worst in the world in the last decade and casts a shadow over civil aviation safety. The investigation is not just about finding who is to blame but also about preventing future accidents. India and the US are cooperating to clarify all circumstances and improve safety.
Will the Public Soon Know the Truth?
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy expressed hope that the Indian government will soon share investigation details. “For aviation safety and public awareness, we hope they will quickly release their findings,” she said. But given the delays and uncertainties, many wonder – what is being hidden behind the scenes?
Conclusion
This tragedy is still shrouded in mystery, but the fact that the black boxes are finally in the hands of investigators gives hope that the truth will come out. Will it be a shocking revelation or just confirmation of human error? Time will tell. Meanwhile, as we wait for the preliminary report, we can only wonder – how safe is flying today?
