Top Story: Air India Crash in Calicut

Today, an Air India flight attempted to land at Calicut’s tabletop runway and crashed. The primary cause was severe weather – heavy rain reduced visibility and made the runway slippery. Because tabletop runways sit on a hilltop with steep drops at the ends, pilots need perfect conditions to land safely. In this case, the combination of low visibility and a slick surface proved fatal.

Investigators also noted that the runway’s design leaves little room for error. When rain turns the surface slick, braking distance shortens dramatically, and pilots can easily overshoot. The crash underscores why weather monitoring and runway design matter more than ever for safety.

If you’re watching the story unfold, you’ll see updates on rescue efforts, passenger counts, and the airline’s response. We’ll add new information as soon as authorities release it, so you don’t have to hunt across multiple sites.
