Air India probe finds no issues with fuel control switches on Boeing 787s, NDTV says
Jul 16, 2025 11:07 AM

July 16 (Reuters) - Air India has completed the

inspection of fuel control switches on Boeing 787 planes

with no issues being found, Indian broadcaster NDTV said on

Wednesday, citing an official.

Boeing ( BA ) and Air India did not immediately respond to Reuters

requests for comment. Reuters could not immediately verify the

NDTV report.

India on Monday ordered its airlines to examine fuel

switches on several Boeing ( BA ) aircraft models, while South Korea

ordered a similar measure on Tuesday, as scrutiny intensified of

fuel switch locks at the centre of an investigation into a

deadly Air India crash last month that killed 260 people.

India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) had

said it issued an order to investigate locks on several Boeing ( BA )

models, including 787s and 737s, after several Indian and

international airlines began making their own inspections of

fuel switches.

A preliminary report released last week into the crash found

the switches had almost simultaneously flipped from run position

to cutoff shortly after takeoff.

The Boeing Dreamliner bound for London from the Indian city

of Ahmedabad began to lose thrust and sink shortly after

takeoff, according to the report on the world's deadliest

aviation accident in a decade.
