The cockpit voice recorder from Air India Flight 171 has shed new light on the incident, revealing that the junior co-pilot inquired the captain about the deactivation of the fuel supply switch. An anonymous source has confirmed for the first time the identity of the pilot who posed this question. Last week, in its preliminary investigation report on the June 12 air disaster, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau of India mentioned this dialogue but did not disclose the identities of the speakers at that time. The flight tragically crashed shortly after takeoff, leading to substantial casualties, and the investigation has subsequently shifted its focus towards potential pilot error.
