Cracking the whip on budget carrier IndiGo over the issue of faulty Pratt & Whitney engines, aviation regulator DGCA has served show-cause notices to its chief operating officer and engineering head, sources close to the development said on Wednesday.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is also carrying out a special safety audit of the carrier as it has found issues in “operations and engineering of the country’s largest airline,” an official source said.
While IndiGo confirmed the receipt of show-cause notices and the safety audit, DGCA chief BS Bhullar said the regulator carries out detailed audit of all airlines at least once a year.
