US Agency’s Bombshell on Ahmedabad Plane Crash: Air India Jet Was Already Faulty, Probe Alleged Negligence
New Delhi: March 15, 2026
US aviation safety agency made shocking claims on June 2025 Ahmedabad crash. ‘Aviation Safety Foundation’ accused gross negligence in probe; key documents withheld from investigators. Crash killed ~260 people. Executive Director Ed Pearson emailed team claiming secret docs point to electrical failure as main cause.
Agency says doomed Boeing 787 Dreamliner (VT-ANB) had poor technical history. Records show prolonged electrical issues, short circuits, wiring defects, smoke. Plane grounded multiple times pre-crash. Left engine’s ‘P100 power panel’ repeatedly replaced without permanent fix. Needed major design/software safety updates—ignored. Allegations of hiding docs raise grave questions on Indian aviation safety/investigation system.
