โ "Initial ADS-B data from flight #AI171 shows that the aircraft reached a maximum barometric altitude of 625 feet (airport altitude is about 200 feet) and then it started to descend with an vertical speed of -475 feet per minute," Flightradar24 said in a post on X.
The signal from the aircraft was lost at 10:08 local time, less than a minute after take-off, Flightradar24 said.
The plane was a Boeing (NYSE:BA) 787-8 Dreamliner, Flightradar24 noted, adding that the first flight of the aircraft was in December 2013 and it was delivered to Air India in January 2014. Shares in Boeing were down more than 8% in pre-market U.S. trading, while GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE), whose GEnx-1B engines power the 787 Dreamliner, fell 6.3%.โ
