Kozhikode plane mishap: black box , cockpit voice recorder recovered

Civil aviation ministry’s investigation agency, Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), has recovered digital flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder from the Air India plane that crashed in Kozhikode, Kerala on Friday evening. The recovered components, that make up the black box of the aircraft, will help investigators figure out what prevented the Boeing Co. 737 from making a landing on Friday. The equipment will be brought to Delhi for further investigation.

The Center today said an investigation is on to ascertain various aspects of the Air India Express flight crash.

It is reported that DGCA had issued a show-cause notice to the director of the Kozhikode airport on July 11, 2019, after it found “various critical safety lapses. The DGCA pointed to cracks on the run way, water stagnation and excessive rubber deposits among other lapses in its show cause notice. It also held an inspection after an Air India Express flight coming from Dammam in Saudi Arabia had a ‘tail strike” while landing at the Kozhikode airport on July 2, 2019.
