Airline Pilot Reveals CHILLING Clue in Final Moments of Air India Flight 171

About this video

Max analyzes video footage and circumstances of the Air India Flight 171 Boeing 787 crash that he reports claimed 242 lives shortly after takeoff. He walks through aircraft configuration anomalies he observes in the footage, discusses possible causes being investigated (including dual engine failure, fuel issues, and maintenance problems), and offers his professional assessment that the flaps-up/gear-down configuration suggests possible pilot error if engines were functioning normally.

Key takeaways

• Max observes that the aircraft’s flaps appear fully retracted when they should have been extended during the low-altitude departure phase, which he explains would cause the aircraft to sink even with working engines
• He notes the crash trajectory was straight off the runway rather than yawed to one side, suggesting to him either both engines failed or both were working, rather than a single engine failure
• Max emphasizes that despite this tragedy, the 787 has a 14-year stellar safety record and air travel remains statistically very safe, with odds of a fatal crash less than 1 in 11 million
