  "account": "The Federation of Indian Pilots (FIP) has written to the Indian civil aviation minister, Ram Mohan Naidu, seeking input on an independent review of the draft final report investigating the crash of Air India flight AI-171 in Ahmedabad on June 12, 2025. According to the letter, FIP learned that the government may require an independent committee to examine the draft report before it is finalized or distributed. However, the newspaper could not independently verify if such a review has been ordered. The AAIB, which is preparing the draft report, is reportedly considering forming an experts committee to review the document before publication. The FIP has requested confirmation on various aspects of the review process, including the formation of an independent committee, its composition, terms of reference, the involvement of aviation professionals, and the consideration of the federation's technical observations. They emphasized the importance of including a professional pilot perspective in the review process for a comprehensive and technically independent evaluation.",
  "summary": "They emphasize the need for pilot perspectives in the investigation process for improved aviation safety.",
