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.
A man, devastated by the death of Pilot Clive Kunder in the Air India plane crash, shared a video that he had previously uploaded to his YouTube channel.
A focus on the Boeing 787’s fuel switches in a preliminary assessment raised questions about the pilots’ actions, but much is still unknown about Flight 171.
Captain Steve Scheibner, a seasoned pilot and aviation expert, believes that the deadly crash was the result of human action within the cockpit. Insisting that the aircraft itself was not to blame, he suggested that there was a "human hand" behind the accident.
The Federation of Indian Pilots association has also demanded a formal and unconditional apology from both the media organisations.
