Boeing Dreamliner crash details emerge as India reportedly weighs grounding the 787

More details are coming to light around Thursday’s deadly crash of Air India Flight 171.

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner had 242 people onboard including crew when it crashed into a medical school dining hall shortly after takeoff. The death toll, including people on the ground, has reached more than 240. As of Friday morning, there is only one known survivor who was onboard.

The crash marks the country’s deadliest aviation incident in 29 years and is the first crash of a 787 Dreamliner in the aircraft’s 14-year history. More than 1,100 Dreamliners operate worldwide.
