The deadly Air India crash last month has renewed a decades-old debate in the aviation industry over installing video cameras monitoring airline pilot actions to complement the cockpit voice and flight data recorders already used by accident investigators.

The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau's preliminary report on the Air India crash reveals crucial insights, praised by IATA. The report, delivered on time, details the accident's causes, notably a simultaneous fuel switch cutoff leading to confusion.

IATA's Willie Walsh advocates for cockpit video recording to enhance accident investigations, citing the Air India crash as a potential case where video evidence could have been invaluable.
