Air India jet’s fuel switches in focus, as crash preliminary report nears

The Air India crash probe is focusing on the engine fuel control switches, based on data from the 787’s flight and voice recorders and a Boeing simulation, a source said.

A preliminary report into the deadly crash of an Air India jetliner in June is expected to be released by Friday, three sources with knowledge of the matter said, with one adding the probe had narrowed its focus to the movement of the plane’s fuel control switches.
