In 2012 a Boeing jet was deliberately crashed in the Sonaran desert, Mexico and filmed it for television. The test revealed the safest seat to sit in.

Thursday’s deadly crash struck at Boeing’s most ambitious and one of its most commercially successful jet programs — a coveted airplane that airlines the world over gladly wait years to receive.

In response to heightened safety concerns, DGCA confirmed that comprehensive surveillance of Air India’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet revealed no significant safety deviations.
