July 18 (Reuters) - A cockpit recording of dialogue between the two pilots of the Air India flight that crashed last month supports the view that the captain cut the flow of fuel to the plane's engines, said a source briefed on U.S. officials' early assessment of evidence.

A lady who flew on an Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner weeks before it crashed reacted after learning about the tragic incident. She shared her own experience.

The Indian government has proposed requiring the lowest temperature setting on all new air conditioners to be 20 Celsius, or 68 Fahrenheit.

Air India said on Tuesday it would partially restore its international flight schedule that was scaled back following the accident involving flight AI171 on June 12.

The CEO of Air India sought to draw a line under rife speculation around the cause of last month's air disaster in Ahmedebad, saying the preliminary investigation had ruled out a mechanical cause for the crash.
