In the recent Boeing crash, I can only hear the questions people have in mind

On June 12, 2025, around 1:38 p.m. IST, an Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner—Flight AI171, headed from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick, went down hard. Barely off the runway, it slammed into the hostel block of B.J. Medical College in Ahmedabad’s Meghaninagar area. Basically, this is the news.

It's heartbreaking that in 2025, living in this crazy high-tech era, we still can't properly analyze our planes. We're not stuck in the '90s anymore—this is the AI age, where bots are handling half our jobs and even taking some. Yet, we’re still hit with tragic events like this.

I don’t know whose fault this is, but what hits hard is that almost everyone on that plane died—except for one survivor, which is shocking and honestly raises big questions about air travel safety. For some, flying is a dream, but how safe are these planes? That’s the real concern.

I don’t know how Air India or the plane manufacturers will answer people’s questions about how every safety measure failed, leading to this tragedy. Whatever the reasons, this event is a wake-up call.

Even in this high-tech era, it feels like corporations aren’t prioritizing people’s safety. Boeing, especially, keeps making headlines for all the wrong reasons with their plane production issues.

I’m heartbroken for all the lives lost and the people who’ve been shattered by this crash. So many stories came to a tragic end on June 12th, and it feels like the answers to what happened are locked away in the plane’s black box. Right now, that’s the only thing that might explain this tragedy.
