Still listed as missing (although parts from that 777 have been located on beaches in the Western Indian Ocean, the body of the plane has not been located ) with cause still officially 'undetermined'

However, there is widespread belief that this was a meticulously planned mass-murder suicide likely by the senior pilot for unknown reasons

Wiki is a good place to read more https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysia_Airlines_Flight_370

As far as this current Air India crash, The Times of India has an article echoing the concerns of The Airline Pilots’ Association of India that there is a strong, unfair, "Bias towards pilot error"

Initially, there was much (likely justified by Boeing's actions these past several years) finger-pointing at the B-787. From the reporting which is now available, it certainly does seem that, perhaps, actions by the pilots cannot summarily dismissed

At some point all will become clear

Deliberate, sounds like Blues Heron Jul 11 #2

No evidence to draw that conclusion. As we know, advanced planes are run by software Bernardo de La Paz Jul 11 #9

Except one pilot asked the other one why he did it EX500rider Jul 11 #14

"Why did you shut off?" sounds like a query of the engines, not the other pilot. greyl Jul 11 #20

A pilot would much more likely say "Why did you shut down?" if speaking to the engines.. EX500rider Jul 11 #21

Spare me the lecture bro Blues Heron Jul 11 #16

Spare me the unfounded speculation bro Bernardo de La Paz Jul 11 #17

Why? it's a message board it's all about disussion. Did you read the article? Blues Heron Jul 11 #18

You were the first to object to discussion. "Spare me". . .. . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 11 #19

I believe there is evidence EndlessWire Jul 12 #30

Paltry. We don't know if the switches were moved or if an internal action occurred and displayed on screens. . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #31

"India Today" has this discussion of the Fuel Switches, their activation, wiring and effect Doctoris Extincti Jul 12 #33

Thanks. Another link I found on that page has even more info, going into scenarios Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #36

There was pilot speculation a while ago that Disaffected Jul 11 #3

There was speculation they hit the flaps up instead of gear up that I saw.... EX500rider Jul 11 #6

Suicide by pilot? EX500rider Jul 11 #4

You have to know the system Fichefinder Jul 11 #8

Wouldn't be the 1st time EX500rider Jul 11 #11

Sure, but zero evidence as yet. Unless you are privy to details we and the press are not. . . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 11 #13

Easy enough deduction IMO EX500rider Jul 11 #15

1) Technical gremlin not ruled out. 2) Other evidence runs counter to your theory Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #23

I am not sure there was not a fight over the switch's, the whole audio has not been released EX500rider Jul 12 #25

"Voted most unlikely" by who. There's no issue until there is an issue. Depending on "no issue" is confirmation bias. nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #28

By experts on the plane? EX500rider Jul 12 #35

Good catch. Thanks. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #37

The report said that EndlessWire Jul 12 #34

Switch's were found in RUN position nt EX500rider Jul 12 #38

Looks like it. So horrible for all the people who were killed pinkstarburst Jul 12 #22

Cockpit recordings make it clear that it was not intentional. There was no fight and engines were restarted. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 12 #24

All the cockpit audio has not been released. EX500rider Jul 12 #27

gee, instead of arguing maybe turn the fuel supply on again? msongs Jul 11 #5

yeah seconds counted, the 1st engine was just spooling up when they went down EX500rider Jul 11 #7

A pilot did restart at least one engine, but they ran out of time and altitude. Eugene Jul 11 #10

They did, gee. Bernardo de La Paz Jul 11 #12

I'm curious as to whether there was a third person in the cockpit relayerbob Jul 12 #26

Modern, digitized aircraft controls can be run remotely... Think. Again. Jul 12 #32
