A cockpit voice recording of doomed Air India Flight 171 indicates the younger co-pilot asked his more experienced colleague why he turned off the plane’s fuel-supply switches, according to people familiar with the matter.

India's aircraft accident investigation body said on Thursday it was too early to reach any "definite conclusions" on what led to the deadly Air India Boeing plane crash last month that killed 260 people.

NEW DELHI — A cockpit voice recording from the June 12 crash of an Air India Boeing 787 indicates that one of the pilots may have cut off fuel to the plane’s engines just after takeoff, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the early findings of U.S. investigators.

A preliminary report released last week included detail about the fuel, saying that the fuel to the plane's engines appeared to have been shut off.

The preliminary report into Air India Flight 171 said the fuel was cut off to both engines seconds after liftoff, and cited a 2018 FAA advisory.

The deadly Air India crash last month has renewed a decades-old debate in the aviation industry over installing video cameras monitoring airline pilot actions to complement the cockpit voice and flight data recorders already used by accident investigators.
