Precipita Volo Air India diretto a Londra AI 171


Forse (non riesco a leggere l'articolo di Repubblica perché sono avaro :rolleyes:😝) fanno riferimento a questo articolo della BBC, che sostiene "Speaking to BBC News, an emotional Mr. Ramesh ... said...", da cui parrebbe di capire che effettivamente sia stato intervistato.
Però in effetti potrebbero essere solo un po' di note di colore di contorno aggiunti dal giornalista per dare pathos, come spiega @londonfog
Si, in rete gira il video. Molto toccante quando dice che è la persona più fortunata al mondo ma che però gli è stato tolto tutto, che ha perso suo fratello ad esempio.

On Nov 13th 2025 the hearing by the Supreme Court commenced. The court stated, that the Indian government (representing the AAIB) have not submitted any reply to the petitions in over two months, instructed the government to provide replies and ended the hearing, that remained very brief as result. In the hearing the lawyer representing the government stated: "We never blamed the pilots."

In a hearing solely regarding the petition by the father of the Captain on Friday Nov 7th 2025 subsequently combining the then two, later three petitions into one hearing, the court had told the father: "No one can hold your son responsible for the tragic crash." and further stated: "No one in India believes it was the pilots' fault. There’s no insinuation against the pilots." And with reference to foreign reports like the Wall Street Journal the court stated: "We are not bothered by foreign reports. If that’s your concern, your remedy should be before a foreign court. It’s just nasty reporting."

Following the hearing on Nov 13th 2025 India's Pilots Association ALPA India released the following statement:

The petition concerning Air India Flight AI-171 raises issues that go far beyond a routine accident investigation.

Emerging technical evidence suggests that the Boeing 787-8 experienced a complex, multi-layered systems failure involving electrical transients, hydraulic interruption, and possible loss of command authority anomalies consistent with long-standing service bulletins and airworthiness directives on the Dreamliner’s integrated electrical architecture. These are not the signatures of pilot error but indicators of a deeper, systemic vulnerability that demands independent scrutiny. Under India’s own aviation rules, a serious accident of this nature where a potential design or system failure may have directly contributed to loss of control requires a Court of Inquiry, not merely a closed technical review.

The Supreme Court’s decision to issue notice reflects the gravity of these concerns and acknowledges that public safety must take precedence over institutional optics.

As senior counsel highlighted in court, several post-crash faults in 787 fleets worldwide underscore that the risks exposed by AI-171 are not isolated.

A transparent, judicially supervised inquiry is essential to determine not only what happened on that flight but whether similar hazards continue to threaten passengers and crew across all operators. This case is now a matter of national and international aviation safety, and its outcome will shape regulatory confidence and technological accountability for years to come.
 
Praticamente stanno dicendo che il 787 è intrinsecamente insicuro e un incidente potrebbe accadere da un momento all'altro.
Bene: si rifiutino immediatamente di volarci. Allora forse potrei credere ad una sparata del genere.
