He said that some more details were required before the team could arrive at a conclusion. This would be done in around two weeks. The team was likely to make a second visit after a week after examining meticulously every piece of debris.

Tyagi also collected health reports of all officials before boarding the ill-fated chopper. The experts tried to infer the direction of the flight, the altitude at which the helicopter flew and the impact of the weather conditions on the fight journey.

The experts were understood to be probing why the ill-fated copter had descended to such a low altitude (355) when its engine power was normal.

Tyagi said that the details of the probe would be updated on the DGCA website. The team would submit its report to Union Minister for Civil Aviation within two months.
