Air India Crash Report Sparks Controversy: Pilots’ Union Cries Foul

The recent report on the Air India crash in Ahmedabad has drawn sharp criticism from the pilots’ union, who allege bias and a lack of transparency in the investigation process. The union contends that the report prematurely presumes pilot guilt, raising concerns about the fairness and accuracy of the findings.

Union Challenges Report’s “Presumption of Guilt”

The pilots’ union has expressed serious reservations about the report’s approach, claiming it focuses on blaming the pilots before thoroughly exploring all possible contributing factors. They argue that the investigation appears to have prematurely concluded that pilot error was the primary cause, neglecting other potential issues such as mechanical failure or air traffic control errors.

Calls for Transparency and Impartial Investigation

The union has called for a more transparent and impartial investigation into the crash, demanding access to all relevant data and evidence. They emphasize the importance of a comprehensive and unbiased review to determine the true cause of the accident and prevent similar tragedies in the future. The perceived secrecy surrounding the investigation process has further fueled the union’s concerns.
