Air India Flight 171 is the latest passenger plane to go down and leave devastation.
The flight crashed shortly after takeoff from the Indian city, carrying at least 242 people. The airline said in a statement that the plane had 169 Indian nationals, 53 British nationals, one Canadian, and seven Portuguese.
The city police commissioner told The Associated Press that there appeared to be no survivors from the Air India airliner crash.
According to the flight data, the aircraft reached its maximum altitude of 625 feet before descending at a vertical speed of -475 feet per minute.
The crash site is approximately one mile from the airport.
The cause of the crash has yet to be determined, but according to its data, the aircraft reportedly carried a substantial fuel load for a long-haul flight to London.
Now, one passenger is calling out Air India from the previous flight.

“Noticed unusual things in the place. Made a video to tweet to @airindia I would want to give more details,” he finished.
In the post, he includes a picture of the Air India plane and a video taken inside while everyone was seated.
He and the other hundreds of people would become extremely lucky, as whatever caused the Air India plane to go down hours later would not happen to them in the same manner.
An Investigation Into The Air India Plane Could Take Months
The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau will investigate the Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad, according to The Hindu.
The investigation will likely take several months.
