Air India plane crash investigators have found both of the Boeing 787's "black boxes," hopefully brining an understanding of the cause of the disaster a step closer.

Mohol said the panel, chaired by Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan, will examine all possible factors behind the disaster, including mechanical failure, human error, and compliance with safety regulations.

Tragedy struck this week when a plane crashed in the city of Ahmedabad just shortly after takeoff, leaving investigators and aviation officials with many questions.

Indian investigators have recovered the digital flight data recorder or the black box of the Air India flight that crashed a day earlier.

Investigators hope ‘black box’ data can shed light on whether jet crashed because of mechanical failure, human error or other factors

The Air India flight fell from the sky on Thursday and killed at least 270 people in Gujarat state, officials said Saturday.

The aviation ministry on Saturday said that the flight data recorder of the Air India plane that crashed in Ahmedabad on Thursday has been found, adding that the flight had climbed 650 feet in the air before it started descending.
