India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) is yet to decide whether flight data and cockpit voice recorders from the Air India flight that crashed last Thursday will be sent overseas for decoding and analysis.

Vishwashkumar, who was sitting in seat 11a on the Air India flight, is receiving treatment at Ahmedabad’s Civil Hospital, where he has been visited by India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who also attended the bedside of locals who were not onboard the plane but were struck and injured by the crash.

The AI-171 crash has similarities to a similar incident in 2020 in the UK. Investigators who probed the earlier case in UK are now in Ahmedabad and initial reports suggest the crash wasn't due to any error in the cockpit.
