Air India DGCA Notice
Air India (AI) operated an Airbus A320 with an expired airworthiness certificate on eight flights across its domestic network.
Air India (AI) has drawn a sharp warning from the DGCA over its handling of a temporary pilot duty exemption following Pakistan’s airspace ban.
DGCA warned Air India Express (IX) in March over failure to promptly comply with a European airworthiness directive related to CFM engine components on an Airbus A320 aircraft.
A senior DGCA official stated, “The two airlines have to respond within 14 days. The notice is for rostering non-CAT III compliant pilots.”
