DGCA issues fresh guidelines to improve working conditions of aircraft maintenance personnel
NEW DELHI: Aviation regulator DGCA has issued a fresh set of guidelines on duty time limitations for aircraft maintenance personnel.
The advisory is being issued to improve the working conditions of aircraft maintenance personnel (AMP), a senior DGCA official said on Friday.
The watchdog has asked aircraft maintenance organisations (AMOs) to frame policy to address duty time limitation for AMP.
“While framing the policy for duty time limitation by an AMO, the factors affecting the physical and mental performance of an individual should be considered to avoid any mistake or error in maintenance, which may jeopardize the airworthiness, safety of aircraft and the individual,” it said.
