AAIB Denies Pilot Group's Request to Join Air India Crash Probe

AAIB Denies Pilot Group's Request to Join Air India Crash Probe

After a tragic plane crash, the group that represents pilots wanted to help figure out what went wrong.

They asked to be part of the team looking into the crash, but the investigators said no, because of the rules.

The pilots' group met with the investigators, but their request was denied.

The investigators will invite the pilots to future meetings.

The Supreme Court has criticized the investigation team for publishing information prematurely.

The crash happened shortly after takeoff, and the preliminary report shows both engines lost fuel supply.

The pilots’ group believes that their participation could make investigations stronger.
