Soon after AAIB report on the Ahmedabad plane crash, which indicated triggering the fuel switch before the crash. Air India has now replaced the Throttle Control Module (TCM) of the crashed Boeing 787-8 plane. They have replaced the TCM twice in the last six years following a directive from Boeing in 2019, according to sources.

As reported by PTI, the TCM includes fuel control switches, which have come into focus in the ongoing probe into the fatal crash, as these switches were cut off immediately after takeoff of the ill-fated London-bound Dreamliner VT-ANB that crashed in Ahmedabad on June 12.

The replacement of the Throttle Control Module was done twice, in 2019 and 2023. The report by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) mentioned that the unfortunate plane crash in Ahmedabad happened because of fuel switch triggers. While changing the TCM, Air India said the TCM replacement was not linked to the fuel control switches, as cited by PTI.
