Incredible new footage shows the sole survivor of the devastating Air India crash walking away calmly from the wreckage — as the aircraft explodes in a huge fireball behind him.

Air India has faced numerous deadly incidents, including the recent crash of flight 171, which killed 241, and past tragedies like the 1985 bombing and 2020 crash.

Extraordinary new footage has emerged of the sole survivor of Air India Flight 171 walking away from the plane wreckage while it exploded behind him. The Gatwick-bound Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner crashed into a residential hostel for student doctors moments after taking off in the Indian city of Ahmedabad on Thursday.

Air India's Chairman N. Chandrasekaran on Monday told staff that last week's plane crash that killed at least 271 people should be a catalyst to build a safer airline, urging employees to stay resolute amid any criticism.

A lady who worked as a flight attendant was one of the people who died in the devastating Air India plane crash that happened in Ahmedabad and killed many.

The incidents follow the devastating Ahmedabad crash involving an Air India 787-8 last week, which claimed 270 lives, including passengers and civilians on the ground. The aircraft crashed into a medical college campus shortly after take-off, triggering a massive blaze.

The incident follows the Air India crash in Ahmedabad when a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner crashed minutes after taking off, killing 241 people onboard.

Boeing was generating optimism. Then on Thursday a 787 crashed, raising the specter of fresh problems for Boeing and altering the message it planned to send.
