Indian pilots demand grounding of Air India’s 787s after two system failures; safety concerns raised.
The Federation of Indian Pilots has urged India’s civil aviation ministry to ground all Air India Boeing 787 aircraft following two recent incidents involving critical system failures.
On October 4, flight AI-117 experienced an uncommanded ram air turbine deployment during approach, and on October 9, flight AI-154 was diverted to Dubai due to failures in autopilot, instrument landing, and flight control systems, requiring manual landing at night.
Pilots reported ongoing electrical and maintenance issues, especially after Air India shifted maintenance responsibilities.
The group called for a full investigation, a special DGCA audit, and grounding until thorough checks are completed, citing safety risks.
Air India denies electrical failure on AI-154 but acknowledges system malfunctions.
The letter was sent to top aviation officials on October 10, 2025.
