9th incident in 24 days: SpiceJet’s Dubai-Madurai flight delayed as nose wheel malfunctions
SpiceJet’s Dubai-Madurai flight was delayed on Monday after the Boeing B737 Max aircraft’s nose wheel malfunctioned, Directorate General of Civil Aviation officials said.
Monday’s incident is at least the ninth incident of technical malfunction in a SpiceJet aircraft in 24 days.
On July 6, the DGCA issued a show-cause notice to SpiceJet following eight incidents of technical malfunction in its aircraft since June 19. The aviation regulator said the budget carrier had “failed” to establish safe, efficient and reliable air services.
