#airindia, #airindiacrash, #airindiaplanecrash, We are deeply saddened by the tragic crash of Air India Flight AI171 in Ahmedabad, Our hearts go out to the victims and their loved ones in this time of immense sorrow. Air India confirms that flight AI171, operating from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick on 12 June 2025, was involved in an accident. The 12-year-old Boeing 787-8 aircraft departed from Ahmedabad at 1338 hrs, carrying 230 passengers and 12 crew. The aircraft crashed shortly after take-off. When and where did the plane crash? Air India flight AI171 left Ahmedabad's Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport just before 13:39 local time (08:09 GMT) on Thursday 12 June, Air India said. It was scheduled to land at London Gatwick at 18:25 BST. The flight was airborne for less than 40 seconds. The crash killed all but one of the 242 people aboard the aircraft and 19 on the ground. At least 60 were also injured on the ground. By 13 June, police officials said that six bodies had been released to their families. Flight 171 was pushed back from the gate at Ahmedabad Airport at 13:13 IST and taxied to use the full length of runway 23. The aircraft lined up on the runway and was cleared for takeoff at 13:37:33 en route to London Gatwick. At the time, surface winds at the airport were light, ranging around 6 knots (11 km/h; 6.9 mph), the visibility was 6 kilometres (3.7 mi; 3.2 nmi), and there were no significant clouds. The aircraft started its takeoff roll at 13:37:37. The aircraft's ADS-B transponder reported a maximum pressure altitude of around 625 feet (191 m) above mean sea level while still over the runway before the signal was lost at 13:38:50. The aircraft reached a maximum indicated airspeed of 180 knots (330 km/h; 210 mph): 14  One of the pilots issued a mayday call,[8] reporting a loss of power and thrust shortly after take-off.The aircraft was airborne for 32 seconds.[ A video recording from a CCTV security camera next to the runway shows the aircraft initially gaining altitude, then gradually descending while appearing to pitch up and, just out of view, crashing around thirty seconds after take-off, followed by a plume of fire and smoke.[24] Another video of the incident taken by an aviation enthusiast shows the last few seconds before impact.[25] The crash site was 1.5 kilometres (0.9 mi; 0.8 nmi) from the runway. The crash resulted in multiple explosions as the aircraft hit a building and slid; they were followed by thick plumes of smoke.[26][27] The plane crashed into the residential area of the Civil Hospital campus, hitting the doctors' quarters and the students' hostel buildings of the hospital's B. J. Medical College. The aircraft's partially intact stabilisers and tail cone came to rest on top of the multi-storey hostel building. This was Air India's first fatal crash or hull loss since the bombing of Flight 182 in 1985, and the first fatal crash and the first hull loss of the Boeing 787 since its introduction in 2011. It was also the deadliest aviation accident in India since the 1996 Charkhi Dadri mid-air collision. The aircraft broke apart on impact, igniting a fire that destroyed parts of five buildings. All but one of the people on board the plane were killed. The sole survivor was Vishwaskumar Ramesh, a 40-year-old British national of Indian origin. Some 19 people on the ground were also killed and 67 were injured.
