<h1>DGCA orders airlines to inspect fuel switch systems in Boeing aircraft by July 2025 following crash investigation</h1> Aviation regulator DGCA directed airlines to inspect fuel switch locking systems in Boeing 787 and 737 aircraft by July 21, 2025, following a preliminary crash report. The directive affects over 150 aircraft operated by domestic carriers. An investigation bureau's report revealed fuel supply to both engines was cut off within one second during a recent crash that killed 260 people, with cockpit recordings showing pilot confusion about the fuel cutoff. The Federal Aviation Administration had previously flagged potential fuel control switch disengagement issues in 2018. Airlines have begun voluntary inspections as precautionary measures, with some carriers already completing checks on their fleets.
