IFALPA URSE RESPONSE, ‘ALLOW THE INSIDERING COURSE’
“… Such messages are published within 30 days of occurrence. Although this preliminary report raises many questions by its very nature, does not provide answers and any extrapolation of its content can only be considered as estimates, which is not useful for good investigation behavior,” he said.
IFALPA also referred to the report itself, which states that there are no security recommendations at this stage, and invited all parties to “refrain from speculating, allow the investigation to carry out their full and correct progress and avoid the conclusions of preliminary information”.
“The victims, including the crew families and passengers of the Air India 171, deserve our collective professionalism, while a full investigation is carried out,” he added.

IPG Slams Report to omit “vital technical explanations”
This comes the day after Indian Pilots Guild, Air India pilot Association, on July 14, killed a preliminary report on Boeing 787-8 12, June 12, said the AI171 crew deserves a thorough “investigation into reality” and not arguing or sensationalism.
In communication with its members, the Air India’s Air India Pilots also said that the message, “neglects vital technical explanations and voice transcripts”, opens the door to “unnecessary” speculation and misinformed narration in the media.
In its preliminary accident report, which killed 260 people on June 12, she said that fuel switches were cut off in a gap of 1 second immediately after takeoff and caused confusion in the cockpit of the Tata-Run Air India Flight AI 171.
The 15 -page preliminary report, which was released on Saturday, quoted on Saturday, said that one pilot asked why the switch was cut off and the other pilot replied that he did not do so.
“Indian Pilots Guild (IPG) expresses deep concern about the preliminary report published about the tragic loss of our flight AI171,” IPG said.
The pilot body said it recognized the “complexity” of ongoing investigation, and said, “We found that the current report is incomplete in critical areas-especially the inexplicable shutdown of the dual engine and the absence of detailed cockpit communication.”

ICPA, Alpa-India also protests against preliminary report AIB
Previously, in a significant step, two other pilot bodies, Indian Commercial Pilots Association (ICPA) and Air Pilots Association in India (Alpa-India) also appeared against the report.
The preliminary message is available on AAIB on its website.
ICPA is a pilot grouping of a narrow body at Air India, while Alpa-India is a member of the International Federation of Pilots of Airlines (IFALPA), who claims to have 1 1 1 pilots as its members from all over 100 countries.
Such omissions according to the body of the pilot not only disrupt the public confidence, but also “unfairly” undermine the professionalism and behavior of the involved flight crew.
“Give clear: premature conclusions based on half -verified data are irresponsible. They damage reputation, delay actual security lessons and distract from the effort for the truth … Aviation safety depends on transparency and non -existing assumptions,” he said.
“We are inviting examination bodies to provide a complete, convincing and technically healthy message in the spirit of responsibility and truth,” the Air India pilots said.
