(India, 13th) BBC points out that flight safety expert Marco Chan stated that the weather was clear and stable at the time of the plane crash. The routine aviation weather report at that time showed weak ground winds and a visibility of 6 kilometers, "no significant cloud layers and weather phenomena were reported, nor were there any wind shears, storms, or other adverse conditions that could cause an accident."
According to a report by India's NDTV, experts analyzing crash footage believe that although the exact cause of the crash is yet to be determined, it is speculated that the cause could be a loss of thrust and lift, or a bird strike.
NDTV mentioned that it is currently confirmed that the passenger plane suffered a catastrophic failure at an extremely low altitude of 825 feet, unable to ascend and gain lift. The pilots struggled to maintain ascent, but the plane crashed after they issued a distress call.
Aviation expert Razza said that the causes of the incident might include multiple bird strikes or incorrect take-off configuration. Experts indicated that the aircraft engines appeared to have lost thrust, and the landing gear was still in a lowered state. Since this flight was originally scheduled for a long-haul trip to London, UK, the plane was fully fueled.
