Air India CEO says investigation into Ahmedabad crash raises new questions

Air India CEO Campbell Wilson stated that the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau's preliminary report does not identify any cause for the July 12 Ahmedabad crash or recommend any actions.
The report indicated no mechanical or maintenance issues with the aircraft or engines, and all Boeing 787s were checked and deemed fit for service after the crash.
Wilson noted that both fuel control switches were changed to cutoff just after take-off, but the report did not specify which pilot was responsible for this action.
Wilson urged not to draw premature conclusions since the investigation is still ongoing, emphasizing the need for thorough cooperation with investigators.
