Flight AI171 was flown by Captain Sumeet Sabharwal, 56, who had a total flying experience of 15,638 hours and, according to the Indian government, was also an Air India instructor. and co-pilot was Clive Kunder, 32, who had 3,403 hours of total flying experience. The fuel switches had almost simultaneously flipped from ‘run’ to ‘cutoff’ just after takeoff. The preliminary report did not say how the switches could have flipped to the cutoff position during the flight. Experts said a pilot would not be able to accidentally move the fuel switches.
