"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"The crew noticed that one of the two fuel control switches failed to stay locked in the run position twice, only stabilising at the third attempt. The jet then took off for the journey. When the pilot flagged the issue after landing, there was widespread alarm as fuel control switches, which regulate the flow of jet fuel into the aircraft engines, were implicated in last year's Air India crash in western India."
Independent reporters cover topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech, producing investigations and documentaries and relying on donations to keep reporting free of paywalls. Donations fund journalists to report to both sides and maintain open access to reporting and analysis paid for by those who can afford it. A Boeing 787 Dreamliner operating an Air India flight from Heathrow to Bangalore developed a fuel control switch issue during engine start, with one of two switches failing to stay locked in the run position twice and only stabilising on the third attempt. The jet departed and the pilot later reported the fault after landing, triggering safety checks and prompting the UK Civil Aviation Authority to request a detailed explanation from Air India because similar fuel control switches were implicated in last year's deadly Air India crash.
