Ajit Pawar Plane Crash: How did Ajitdada's plane crash? Investigation of the black box is underway to find the exact reasons.

The investigation of the plane crash involving the state's Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on January 28 will now be conducted by the Central Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB). Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had written a letter to the Union Aviation Minister Kinjrappu Rammohan Naidu demanding a transparent investigation. Accordingly, the AAIB has started the investigation, and the report will also be sent to the state government. The black box of the aircraft has been seized, and the investigation will be conducted in a timely manner according to aviation accident and incident regulations.

What is a black box, and where is it located?

AAIB's investigation will examine the aircraft's technical records, operational details, and evidence from the scene. The Learjet 45 involved in the accident is built according to FAR Part 25 safety standards and contains a flight data recorder (FDR) and cockpit voice recorder (CVR) collectively known as the black box. Although it is called a black box, its color is orange, making it easier to find in debris or forests. This box is designed with a robust structure to withstand explosions, collisions, intense fire, high temperatures, or water, and helps in uncovering the exact cause of the accident.

Chief Minister Fadnavis mentioned in the letter the need to find the cause of the accident and assure the family and the public. In the response letter from Union Minister Naidu, assurance of the AAIB investigation was given. This accident has had a significant impact on the state's politics, and further action will be taken after the investigation report. Support for transparency in the investigation is being received from citizens and political leaders.
