This video investigates the controversy surrounding Air India Flight 171 and the claims that have followed its tragic crash. After initial reports pointed to a possible design flaw in the Boeing 787, new evidence tells a very different story. The fuel cutoff switches involved in the accident are among the most common components in modern aviation, used on thousands of Boeing 737 and 787 aircraft with hundreds of millions of flight hours and an extraordinary safety record. Yet in this case, both switches were moved to cutoff one second apart, a sequence that strongly suggests deliberate human action rather than mechanical failure.

As political pressure and national pride began to shape the narrative, investigators delayed critical data releases and attempted to shift blame away from the cockpit. This video examines the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder findings, the international politics that complicated the investigation, and the troubling history of other airline disasters where intentional pilot actions were downplayed or denied. From EgyptAir 990 to SilkAir 185 and Germanwings 9525, a pattern emerges in which uncomfortable truths are reframed to protect reputations and avoid accountability.

Using publicly available information and leaked investigative details, this analysis breaks down why the evidence in Air India 171 points away from Boeing and toward decisions made in the cockpit. It also explores how delays, procedural roadblocks, and political interference can obscure the truth in aviation safety investigations. The goal is to cut through misinformation, examine the facts, and highlight why honest conclusions are essential to preventing future tragedies.
