Ahmedabad, India – E be like say na real drama dey unfold for the skies as Air India Flight 171 take-off mishap don dey ginger people mind. Dis flight wey take off from Ahmedabad airport on June 12, don raise plenty eyebrows and questions for aviation experts, and dem no fit rest until dem find out wetin really happen.
The New York Times don gather video and photo analysis wey nobody fit ignore. According to dem, before the plane even take off, e don stretch wings flaps and slats like say e dey ready to fly. Everything suppose dey normal – adequate runway distance, and the plane even take off from correct point like every other flight wey don use dat runway before.
But before you know am, as the plane don begin de rise, wahala start as the landing gear no fit retract. Chai! Na wetin be dis? Experts don talk say e mean say dem fit don get loss of hydraulic, electric or engine power while dey for the air. If dem no fit manage this kind wahala, na serious gbege wey fit happen.
Dem don analyze the CCTV footage, and according to dem, the place wey the plane comot for runway no be different from wetin don happen in the last seven take-offs. But wetin we go see? Five minutes after taxi, the plane don don get airborne, and the data no fit show any record in between. Na so dem start dey talk about whether the plane fit use back half of the runway wey dey necessary for correct take-off power.
As the plane don lift off, di initial climb rate look like normal, but wey dem check am again, dem start dey suspect whether dem carry the slats and flaps dey for proper position. One sharp eyewitness wey dey for nearby rooftop even catch am say dem see shadows wey fit indicate say those slats dey extended as the plane dey descend.
Base on wetin Shawn Pruchnicki, one former accident investigator talk, di right wing slats dey extended for take-off, but the video wey show crash no clear enough to confirm everything. Wetin be say, even though dem fit see some signs of standard procedures, di landing gear wey don suppose retract show say something wrong dey happen after take-off.
Now, based on di crash video, landing gear still dey in front-wheel-down position after dem don lift off. This one mean say dem try retract am but e no gree fit. Experts dey suspect say na electrical wahala or hydraulic issue fit cause am. If na so, e mean say pilot dem no fit activate di landing gear retraction sequence, and e fit add more wahala for di flight.
Another surprise wey don dey catch plenty eyes na di sound wey dey from di video. Aviation experts don analyze am, and dem talk say e be like say na emergency power generator dey come from di flight. According to dem, sound fit confirm say di emergency turbine don dey work. Na so two engines fit dey collapse at di same time, and e dey rare.
All these hints wey don show why di flight don land for palm oil field don cause more wahala for investigators. Dem dey rush to get di black box as dem try remember if fuel get contamination, or maybe na some flight parameters input no correct before take off. As dem dey work on top di investigation, pipo go dey follow every step wey dem dey take to unravel di mystery surrounding Air India Flight 171.
