Search crews sifting through the wreckage of the Air India jetliner that crashed last week retrieved the second black box, as they seek to gain more evidence to understand what caused the accident that killed all but one of the 242 people on board.

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

The second black box from Air India flight AI171 which crashed in Ahmedabad on 12 June 2025 has been recovered and will reveal key cockpit recordings.
