The DGCA has asked airlines to inspect the fuel switch locking system in their Boeing 787 and 737 planes after a preliminary probe report into the Air India crash found that the switches were cut off before the accident.

According to the DGCA circular dated July 14, the fuel control switch locking feature on nearly all major Boeing aircraft currently in commercial operation have to be inspected.

Following a preliminary report on the Air India's Boeing 787 crash, India's aviation regulator DGCA has mandated the inspection of the fuel switch locking system in Boeing 787 and 737 aircraft by July 2025.
