Indian Airlines Flight 131 was flying from Bombay to Ahmedabad with 129 passengers and six crew members.
Indian Airlines, which flies to 73 airports in India and to nine other countries, has recently for allegedly failing to maintain pre-flight safety procedures and conditions.
Yesterday's crash was the carrier's 16th major accident in its 26-year history.
One airline official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the pilot may have confused floodlights at a construction site for the runway.
A recording between the pilot and the Almabad control tower gave no indication of trouble. Rescue workers found the flight data and recorders in smoldering wreckage and blood stained debris.
"The construction lights were on, and he may have taken it as the runway lights," he said.
The passenger manifest said the victims included two Japanese, three Germans and an industrialist from Bahrain. The United News of India was said at least 11 foreigners were aboard but did not identify the other five.
The Fokker Friendship crashed into a 1,400-foot hill near Guwahati airport.
FAA speeds up inspection plan Cracks found in Boeing 737
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Federal Aviation Administration said yesterday for more than 100 flights up an order for boeing through a growing Boeing 737 jerrisons after a row of crashes, including one a foot long, on a Continental Airlines plane.
But FAA and industry officials said the cracks, discovered by Continental workers Oct. 5 while the plane was being repainted, may have been improper patching of the plane more than years ago and not by stress from air.
Federal authorities are asking Continental for records the repair when a plane took place when the plane now-defunct Frontier Airlines, to determine whether the 90-square patch had been attached properly.
Continental absorbed Frontier in 1986.
The older Boeing 737s have been the focus of attention since April,
when a 20-foot section of the roof of an Aloba Airlines plane tore away at 24,000 feet. A flight attendant was taken off the plane, but the plane safely landed.
The new FAD inspections have been under review for months but the investigation of the discovery of the crack on the Government plane. The order is expected to be issued later this week, probably by a FAD spokesman Bb Buckhorn.
The inspections, aimed at older Boeing 725 with 40,000 or more landings, are not likely to interfere with the FAA will allow the checks to be conducted during routine maintenance. Some air carriers with older aircraft already have begun the inspection of application of the order, officials said.
It was not clear how many 737s would be subject to the inspection According to the Boeing Co. aircraft, 105 of their jets have $a$ close to 40,000 landings.

KHAITOUM, Sudan - Prime Minister Sadek Madem said yesterday that the death toll from civil war and famine in his country was 20 times Western estimates, and he rejected criticism of his handling of the crisis.
Mahdi said his government has "great measures" in trying to help thousands of refugees witnesses of religious refusing "no more than skin over bone."
The Associated Press that "I don't think the loss of life was more than 10 per 1,000." That would be the equivalent of about 13,000.
Western relief officials, who corresponded the situation in Sudan to the Ethiopian government, said Tuesday that about 260,000 people have died in 1988 because of lack of food and medical care during long periods of the fighting in southern Sudan.
He acknowledged that the army, which represents the Muslims in the recent fighting against the southern rebels, most of whom are Christians, was not involved.
But Mahdi, a Muslim, said the government has acted effectively to help thousands of refugees whom he is being "no more than skin over bone."
"The United Nations representative has recognized the great measures taken by the Sudanese government to bring relief to the displaced. He generally approved the way the UN handled," said the prime minister.
