A few days ago, an Air India Dreamliner tragically crashed after struggling to gain altitude shortly after takeoff. While the exact cause remains unknown, emerging details suggest a critical in-flight power loss that led to the deployment of the aircraft’s Ram Air Turbine (RAT)—a backup emergency power system used when both engines lose power or electrical systems fail.
A newly released high-definition video of the crash shows the aircraft’s final moments in greater detail, offering clearer visuals and sound. Analysts note that the deployment of the RAT points to a serious systems failure, which may have contributed to the crash. This type of failure scenario is considered one of the most feared emergencies for pilots.
Investigations are ongoing to determine the exact sequence of events that led to the loss of control and the fatal outcome.
