Not looking forward to Boeing paying racist bot farms to go around claiming Indians are too subhuman to properly maintain their totaly not faulty engines.

Oh fuck.

Summary:

Crashed 5 minutes after takeoff
Nose was up but plane wasn't climbing
Pilots called a mayday but ATC received no response
Ahmedabad, India to London, UK is about half of a 787's range

It looks like the emergency wind turbine was deployed, which only comes out if there is a total electrical failure. Mind you, one of the Boeing whistleblowers main claims is shoddy electrical work.
