India’s aviation safety body, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), is preparing an interim report on the Air India crash, due ahead of an upcoming anniversary, according to multiple reports. The interim report is described as more comprehensive than the preliminary report issued last July. Investigators say the interim findings will focus on possible primary causes and other contributing factors, reflecting work completed so far and areas still under examination. Several outlets report that India will not release a final report at this stage, indicating that investigators need additional time to complete the probe. The AAIB’s interim document is therefore expected to outline current analysis rather than present definitive conclusions. The timing of the release is linked to the anniversary, with outlets citing that the bureau plans to issue interim findings in advance. Overall, the reporting aligns on the nature of the output—an interim, not final, report—and on its intended scope, including primary cause considerations and contributing factors, while leaving unresolved issues for subsequent investigation steps.
