The investigation into Air India flight 171 crash opens up questions into the many concerns surrounding Boeing's 787.

Air India has confirmed that one passenger survived Thursday's airplane crash, which had 242 passengers and crew members on board.

The crash happened just weeks after the company cut a deal with the U.S. government to avoid taking criminal responsibility for a pair of deadly crashes in 2018 and 2019.

The Air India flight, carrying 242 passengers and crew members, crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, India, en route to London Gatwick.
