The father of the pilot whose Air India flight crashed in Ahmedabad earlier this year claimed that investigators had hinted his son was responsible for turning off the fuel soon after take-off.
Flight AI 171, a Boeing Dreamliner bound for London, crashed on 12 June in western India less than a minute after taking off. The crash, India’s deadliest aviation disaster in decades, killed 229 passengers, 12 crew members and 19 people on the ground. One passenger survived.
