Only one passenger survived. The plane struck a residential area and ended up in the dining hall of BJ Medical College.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cause of the crash is still under investigation. Experts are examining possible engine failure, wing flap or landing gear issues, and a potential stall due to loss of thrust. Black box and cockpit recordings have been recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former Boeing manager and whistleblower Ed Pierson, speaking to NDTV, said chaotic and unsafe manufacturing practices at Boeing could be a contributing factor. He had previously raised concerns about rushed production, overworked staff, and faulty parts in Boeing\u2019s 787 line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pierson stressed it\u2019s too early to draw conclusions, but noted worrying reports \u2014 including a passenger saying systems like air conditioning weren\u2019t working before the crash. \u201cThat\u2019s a little bit of a concern,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Authorities from India, the UK, and the US are jointly investigating. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/?p=69892\">also read&#8230;.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, Air India flight AI171, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, killing over 270 people.
