A total of 66 flights of Boeing’s B787 Dreamliner, the aircraft which crashed on June 12 after take-off from the airport in Ahmedabad, have been cancelled in the last six days.
India’s aviation body, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), has reviewed recent operational data for Air India’s wide-body operations, with specific attention to the Boeing 787 fleet.
The DGCA on Tuesday held a high-level meeting with senior officials of Air India Ltd. and Air India Express, who are currently operating over 1,000 flights daily across domestic and international sectors.
The recent surveillance conducted on Air India’s Boeing 787 fleet did not reveal any major safety concerns. The aircraft and associated maintenance systems were found to be compliant with existing safety standards, read a press statement by the Ministry of Civil Aviation.
However, the DGCA raised concerns regarding recent maintenance-related issues reported by Air India. The airline was advised to strengthen internal coordination across engineering, operations, and ground handling units and ensure the availability of adequate spares to mitigate passenger delays resulting from such issues and strictly adhere to regulations
