ISLAMABAD: India has decided to send the black box from the recently crashed Air India aircraft to the United States for analysis, according to a report by the Economic Times.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The move comes after local investigators found the device too damaged to retrieve useful data domestically.<\/p>\n

The aircraft, a Boeing Dreamliner, crashed last week, killing all 241 passengers on board and at least 30 people on the ground, making it the deadliest aviation disaster globally in the past decade.<\/p>\n

According to officials cited by local media, the black box was severely damaged by post-crash fire, rendering data extraction in India impossible.<\/p>\n

Data to Be Analyzed in Washington<\/h3>\n

The black box contains two critical components \u2014 the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder (CVR).<\/p>\n

These devices store vital flight information such as altitude, airspeed, and pilot communications.<\/p>\n

Such data is essential for determining the cause of aviation accidents.<\/p>\n

Due to the damage sustained, the black box will be sent to the Washington-based laboratory of the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).<\/p>\n

Sources say the data recovered there will be shared with India\u2019s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) for its ongoing probe.<\/p>\n

Investigation Underway<\/h3>\n

Neither the AAIB nor Air India has issued an official statement regarding the transfer of the black box at this stage.<\/p>\n

The crash has triggered global attention, and aviation safety agencies are closely monitoring the investigation.<\/p>\n

Experts believe the NTSB\u2019s advanced lab facilities will be key in unlocking the data needed to understand what led to the tragic crash.<\/p>\n

This is a standard practice when countries lack the necessary tools or resources to handle severely damaged flight recorders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
