Air India flight 171 preliminary report is out. Apparently, the aircraft was really brought down by sheer pajeet incompetence. Here is what the public knows so far:

- 08:08:42: Engine 1 and Engine 2 fuel cutoff switches transitioned from RUN to CUTOFF position one after another with a time gap of 01 sec

- In the cockpit voice recording, one of the pilots is heard asking the other why did he cutoff.
The other pilot responded that he did not do so.

- 08:08:52: Engine 1 fuel cutoff switch transitioned from CUTOFF to RUN

- 08:08:56: the Engine 2 fuel cutoff switch also
transitions from CUTOFF to RUN

The EGT was observed to be rising for both engines indicating relight. Engine 1’s core
deceleration stopped, reversed and started to progress to recovery. Engine 2 was able to
relight but could not arrest core speed deceleration and re-introduced fuel repeatedly to
increase core speed acceleration and recovery.

- The EAFR recording stopped at 08:09:11
UTC

Now, remember that MSFT is replacing 20,000 coders with H1-Bs, imagine the incoming software competency crisis armageddon.
