New Delhi: The DGCA has ordered enhanced safety inspection of Air India’s Boeing 787-8/9 aircraft in the aftermath of Thursday’s crash that killed 241...
An aviation safety firm's CEO says a team from the Indian aviation regulator & those from every regulator where the aircraft is operated are expected to visit the crash site soon.
India's aviation sector is soaring, but steep training costs, outdated infrastructure, and the long haul from a commercial licence to the cockpit are keeping pilots grounded.
Implementation of new norms, introduced in January to ease pilots' working hours, rest periods, has been deferred. Pilots complain of constantly-changing roster & being 'financial slaves'.
The civil aviation regulator found deficiencies and multiple violations of provisions by several post holders and staff, which could significantly affect safety.
Air traffic controllers cleared flights; not a safety lapse, says their guild. Civil aviation directorate initiates a probe into incident that occurred Saturday at Mumbai airport.
IndiGo says its flight from Indore was given landing clearance by ATC. DGCA has initiated a probe and de-rostered an air traffic controller involved in the incident.
Despite growing passenger volume, 11 out of 14 carriers reported losses in 2023-24. IndiGo recorded profit of Rs 8,167 crore, which reduced to Rs 7.253 crore in 2024-25.
Of the total package, $649 million will be utilised for additional hardware, software, and support services, and the remaining for Major Defence Equipment (MDE).
None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
