The Federation of Indian Pilots is calling for a deeper investigation into the technical records of the AI-171 aircraft following its recent crash. The federation has urged authorities to incorporate documentation submitted by the Foundation for Aviation Safety into the official probe. According to the pilots' group, these records contain critical information that could be vital to understanding the cause of the incident.

The documents in question reportedly cover the aircraft's operational history, including past maintenance actions and a log of recurring system anomalies. By seeking scrutiny of these specific fault indications, the federation aims to determine if mechanical or technical failures played a role in the crash. While the investigation is ongoing, the federation’s request highlights a push for transparency regarding the aircraft's prior performance and maintenance standards. There is currently no official response from the investigative authorities regarding whether these specific records will be integrated into the final report, nor has there been a public statement from the airline regarding the alleged system anomalies.
