Mumbai Air India’s 787-8 aircraft from Ahmedabad to London in London fell victim to the accident. The number of flights from Ahmedabad to London was AI171. Now Air India has taken a big decision about flight number AI171. According to the airline, Air India will never keep its flight number AI171. Air India has taken this decision due to this flight number associated with the painful aircraft accident. According to Air India sources, now the number of flights from Ahmedabad to Gatwick will be kept AI159 and AI160.
Air India flight number AI171 from Ahmedabad’s Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport had taken off at 1.30 pm. The aircraft was about 650 feet up in the air that the Captain made a May day call to the ATC. The captain had told the ATC that the engine of the aircraft could not gather strength. A video of the aircraft was also revealed. In which it was shown that with the rise of something after the takeoff, Air India’s aircraft going to London suddenly started coming down and then collided with the mess of the medical college hostel and became a fireball. In this accident, 241 out of 242 people aboard the aircraft died. Only the passenger named Vishwas Kumar Ramesh is left in the Air India aircraft accident.
Just before the accident, the Air India aircraft was flying without flaps. His wheels were not even upwards.
When the Air India aircraft fell victim to the accident, its wheels were also down. Whereas, when the aircraft takes a height close to 50 feet, the pilots up their wheels. Apart from this, many former pilots have also said that it is seen in the video that the flaps in the dai of the aircraft victim of Air India accident was not even down. While flying every aircraft, the pilot has to lower the flaps in the dan from 5 to 15 degrees due to the wind speed. By down the flaps, the air pushes the plane dan and it wakes up rapidly. The same flaps is up while landing the aircraft. Then they collide with the wind and reduce the speed of the aircraft.
