India's set to lead an investigation into a plane crash in Ahmedabad, which has killed at least 290. 

The Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashed onto a doctor's hostel right after take-off, heading for London's Gatwick Airport.  

According to the Telegraph, the last words from the pilot were 'Mayday, no thrust, losing power, unable to lift'. 

US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking this is the first fatal crash by this particular Boeing model, of which there’s about a thousand in service around the world. 

He says experts believe the black box should contain a significant amount of information about the crash, and no doubt Boeing and US safety inspectors will play some role in the investigation.
