Air India said on Tuesday that precautionary inspections found no issues with fuel control switches on its Boeing aircraft following last month’s fatal air disaster that killed 260 people.

The announcement follows a preliminary report into the incident, released last week, that said the switches in an Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner shifted and flipped within seconds, starving both engines of fuel, shortly after taking off.
