Gujarat plane crash: India had seen significant leap in aviation safety
A plane crash in Gujarat has triggered a full investigation by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB). This comes at a time when India's aviation safety record has actually been on the rise, with the country jumping to 48th place globally—up from 102nd just a few years ago. That improvement is thanks to stricter safety measures and better oversight.
TL;DR
What investigators will do
The AAIB quickly sent its top investigators to Ahmedabad to figure out what went wrong. They'll collect flight data, check the site, and look for any technical issues. A first report should be out soon, which will help explain what caused the crash—and hopefully lead to even safer skies in the future.
