A PC-7 Pilatus basic trainer aircraft of the Indian Air Force crashed on Friday during a routine training mission near Tambaram in Chennai, Tamil Nadu’s capital.

India’s Supreme Court stated on Friday that a preliminary report on the June Air India crash that killed 260 people does not imply any fault on the part of the captain.

India’s Supreme Court on Monday issued notices to the federal government and the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), seeking their responses to a public interest litigation (PIL) that calls for an independent, fair, and expedited investigation into the Air India plane crash that claimed 260 lives, officials confirmed.
