On June 12, Boeing 787-8, going from Ahmedabad to London, collided with a medical hostel building shortly after. 270 people died in this.
The US official agency Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Boeing issued a private notification on Sunday stating that the fuel switch lock of the Boeing Plane is absolutely safe.
According to news agency Reuters, FAA and Boeing revealed this notification following the initial report of Ahmedabad-London Plain Crash on July 11, in which the engine fuel cutoff switch was questioned.
Sources said on Sunday that Air India had changed the Ahmedabad-London Boeing 787-8 flight’s throttle control module (TCM) twice in the last 6 years after Boeing’s directive in 2019.
TCM consists of fuel switch locks, which have become the center of plane crash check. Because on June 12, these switches were closed immediately after the takeoff in Ahmedabad-London flight.
The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) in its investigation report on July 12 mentioned converting TCM to 2019 and 2023. However, it was reported that TCM replaced was not associated with fuel switch lock.
