FAA's statement reiterates what Air India had said following the completion of the precautionary inspections of the fuel control switch (FCS) locking mechanism in all of its Boeing 787s and 737s.

The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) has successfully decoded all data from the black box of the plane that crashed in Ahmedabad, according to Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu.

Civil aviation minister Ram Mohan Naidu said definitive answers into the Air India crash will only be available once the AAIB’s final report is ready

Naidu also said that in a first of its kind instance, the AAIB has been successful in decoding data from black boxes of the crashed Air India plane in India itself.

Sandhu, who was also a designated examiner for the Boeing 787-8 fleet at Air India, had taken delivery of the now-crashed 787-8 plane -- VT-ANB -- in 2013.

Rammohan Naidu says that there have been multiple reports not only in India but also in the Western media, trying to air their own viewpoints and narratives

Civil Aviation Minister K. Rammohan Naidu on Monday asserted that the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) is conducting an “unbiased” and “rule-based” investigation into the 12 June crash of Air India flight AI 171 in Ahmedabad,

Aviation Minister urges media to wait for AAIB’s final report and avoid premature claims on the Air India 171 crash.

Civil Aviation Minister K Rammohan Naidu told Rajya Sabha that the AAIB is unbiased in investigating the Air India plane crash and urged restraint until the final report is released.

The U.S. assessment is not contained in a formal document, said a source, who emphasized the cause of the deadly crash remains under investigation.
