American Airlines will fit new Airbus A321s with the same ADS-B In platform as its current A321 fleet, supplier Acron Aviation announced on Wednesday.

Aviation authorities are investigating after an Air India flight plunged 900 feet and received multiple critical warnings shortly after takeoff.

An FAA-commissioned study meant to determine the effect of passenger body size, seat size, and seat pitch on cabin evacuation times had design flaws.

The FAA stated the manual’s incorrect values “could lead to multiple engine surges in a critical flight phase and result in loss of control of the airplane.”

The United crew reported receiving a TCAS alert during their climb as they approached the FedEx aircraft’s altitude on Saturday.

A Ryanair flight from London Stansted struck a barrier while taxiing at Greece’s Kalamata International Airport on June 18, damaging its wingtip.

Air India’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner likely had its emergency-power system online before crashing after takeoff last week, according to a new report.

According to the NTSB, the flight deck rapidly filled with “acrid white smoke” so thick that the captain had difficulty seeing the instrument panel.

The decision was made “so we can be with our team and focus on our customer and the investigation,” Ortberg’s message to staff stated, according to Reuters.

Tata Group, the parent company of Air India, said it will pay the equivalent of $116,868 to the family members of those killed in Thursday’s crash.
