Flipped fuel cutoff switches starved engines of crashed Air India jet, according to a report. Heatwave Continues in IrelandThe Irish weather has been characterized by a prolonged period of extremely warm temperatures, with record-breaking heat forecast for the coming weekend. Temperatures of 30 degrees are possible in many parts of the midlands, while the south, particularly Cork and Kerry, will experience temperatures below 25 degrees. The fuel cutoff switches for both engines went from the "RUN" position to the "CUTOFF" position within one second, starving the engines of fuel. The fuel flow was restored shortly after, but the plane crashed due to insufficient time for the automatic restart sequence.
