Important revelations of AAIB report
The AAIB report has revealed that the last attempt was made to save the plane a few seconds before the pilots gave a call.
What happened at the last moment?
According to the report, just 13 seconds before the “Mayday” call, the pilots returned the engine fuel control switch from “cutoff” to “run” i.e. it means to start the process of starting the engine again.
- The fuel switch of the engine 1 was brought to “run” at 1 to 38 minutes 52 seconds in the afternoon.
- At 1.38 minutes 54 in the afternoon, the APU (Assistant Electrical Unit) inlet began to open, causing the engine start process to activate.
- The engine 2 switch was also done on “run” at 1 to 38 minutes 56 seconds in the afternoon.
Under this process, FADEC (full authority digital engine control) system automatically takes control of fuel and ignition. The EGT (exhaust gas temperature) of both engines showed a rapid rise – this is a sign of relay.
