Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu on Saturday told CNN-News18 that the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau’s (AAIB) report on last month’s Air India crash was based on preliminary findings, and urged against reaching any conclusions until the final report is released.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner, which was travelling from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick on June 12, crashed into a medical hostel complex moments after takeoff in Ahmedabad.
“Till the final report doesn’t come out, we should not reach any conclusion,” said the aviation minister. He hailed the workforce of pilots, calling them the “backbone” of civil aviation.
“I truly believe we have the most wonderful workforce in terms of pilots and the crew in the whole world. Pilots and crew are the backbone of the aviation industry,” Naidu remarked.
The AAIB released its preliminary report into the Air India crash incident, which claimed the lives of 141 people on board, and revealed the sequence of events that occurred that day.
Naidu said that the concerned authorities are analysing the preliminary report and pointed out that any comment on the findings would be appropriate after final report is released.
