Air India AI 171 Crash in Ahemdabad (38 Viewers)

[liberalredditor]

air com retd k kale is saying that both the engine failing is ultra rare, he is talking something about ram air turbine deployment with another commercial pilot sahab

 

[sameer]

It is said the pilot was screaming mayday, but his radio got cut off
Is this because the plane crashed or the plane ran out of power or something else cut the radio?

Watched a lot of air crash investigations. The general guidelines given to pilots is first aviate and then communicate esp in case of emergencies.

Declared a mayday and probably busy trying to stabilize the plane before the inevitable happened.

If i was the pilot i would be dead too.

And i consider myself a decent pilot.

yeah i wasnt accusing anyone, i was just pointing out that nobody could have done anything to save the plane at that moment...

No i didnt take it that way…

But you could put the best pilot in the world and dual engine fail at 400 ft is Goodbye from Earth for them.

@COLDHEARTED AVIATOR sirji, what are your thoughts?

 

[indrajit]

But staff is still the same. Sarkari babu , Indian uncle don’t want to work.

This is not the time for any of your personal grouses against Air India to be aired. If you have nothing of value to add, maybe you should take a break from posting on this thread. Hundreds of people are dead, some decency is called for.

Somebody said this was their effort to a 9/11 in India
I can only remember that bitch Sarah Adams
She said that there was an attack coming from afghanistan

I really hope this isn't true
I think its not a terrorist attack

@COLDHEARTED AVIATOR sirji, what are your thoughts?

Something relating to engine thrust at a small altitude caused the crash.

Everything else like hydraulic failure,electrical failure,smoke in cabin etc could not have caused the plane to sink in so fast.

400 ft agl is too less for any pilot to pull off any stunt.

 

[Nicky]

So twin engine failure is a fault of Boeing or maintenance?

Western media will spin this as our fault, either the airline or pilot.

Can you confirm it's not because of flaps not deployed by looking at the recent images ..engine flame out without any smoke a rarest event .
I don't think it is engine ..it does look like a insufficient lift ..

Not to sound repetitive..but 90% of accidents are caused by pilot error ..

Boeing doesnt manufacture engines.

Secondly,it could be maintenance issue aswell.

How is engine failure pilot error? Also comes getting cut off after the mayday suggests further failure.

 

[liberalredditor]

There was this buzzing sound of RAT being deployed and blurry image of RAT underneath. If its deployed indeed then its Dual Eng Failure case and RAT automatically deploys in 787. Now the cause of Dual Engine failure is for investigators. The pilots could not have done anything in this case as the area is densely populated around the airport. - reddit guy upvoted in numbers

FR24 statement:

The full length of Runway 23 at Ahmedabad was used - what do you mean by this?? was the engine not providing enough power that it had to use full runway? coz a320 takes off in a small stretch

Its not pilot error its called human factors.

What would cause the engines to fail, bird hits, poor maintenance..

Bird hit..poor maintenance..both..

The plane was carrying a technical snag called an MEL i think as per reports i saw.
