Just because everybody today wants immediate answers ?

Let investigators investigate , analyse and make recommendations in peace .But if there is a major technical flaw detected the aircraft type will be immediately grounded . In the next days not in 2028\x85
Annex 13 still works relatively well as a global standard .

Campbell Wilson CEO of Air India sent a long letter to all its customers about the safety of his airline , but with this piece of information

(We did ....) detailed inspections of our fleet of Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 aircraft. Each aircraft underwent inspections under the oversight of India's aviation regulator, the DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation), and we confirm that no issues were found during these inspections. As with some other international airlines, we also inspected the fuel control switch mechanism of Boeing 737 and 787-8 aircraft, likewise with no findings. We continue to work closely with regulators, maintaining full transparency and ensuring that every action we take aligns with the highest standards of safety and care.
