Ahmedabad Plane Crash: More details are emerging in the Ahmedabad plane crash. The plane crashed within a minute of takeoff. Most of the parts of the plane were burnt. The cause is not yet clear. It crashed in a residential area within a minute of takeoff. Flight radar data shows that the signal was lost at an altitude of 625 feet.

The plane crashed in the Meghani area, a residential area. The Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner was flying from Ahmedabad’s Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport to London’s Gatwick Airport when it crashed. Initial information is that there were 242 passengers on board. The plane, which had a capacity of 300 passengers, crashed. Media reports said the plane was loaded with a large amount of fuel for the long-haul flight, which may have contributed to the explosion and fire that followed the crash. Multiple fire engines and ambulances have been dispatched to the crash site for rescue operations.

According to the recent report, 30 people have been confirmed to be the death toll. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) will launch a formal investigation with a team from Boeing. Meanwhile, officials have not yet issued a statement on the suspected cause of the crash. Experts suggest that the weight of the fuel on the international route may have exacerbated the post-crash fire, complicating rescue operations.
