It has now been conclusively proven that the crash of Air India Flight 171 from Ahmedabad to London on June 12 was caused by the deliberate action of Captain Sumeet Sabharwal, who, moments after takeoff, cut off the fuel supply to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner's engines, causing them to stall and the inevitable crash that followed. The investigation has revealed a new and important detail about what happened in the cockpit during those frantic seconds.
"The plane is in your hands": this is the phrase Sabharwal is said to have uttered, handing over full control of the plane to first officer Clive Kunder, who then took over the takeoff.
This was revealed by Corriere della Sera, according to two Western sources familiar with the contents of the black boxes. What does this gesture mean? It is speculated that this gave the captain "complete freedom" to move the fuel flow levers from "Run" to "Cut-off", thus causing the disaster.
Why did he do it?
The commander's depressive state is one of the hypotheses that supports this theory and the deliberate act. Alarmed, in fact, a few seconds after takeoff, Kunder panicked and asked why his superior had acted in that way, only to respond with a lie: "I didn't move the levers, that's not true."
A statement released in recent hours by Air India and analyzed by AFP experts explains that the plane in question had no anomalies: therefore it would never have crashed and the engines would never have lost power if someone had not used those levers on the instrument panel. In a preliminary report, the Indian Air Accidents Investigation Board (AAIB) indicated a few days ago that the fuel supply to the plane's two engines had been cut off shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad.
