DGCA show-cause to SpiceJet after spate of malfunctions, CMD Ajay Singh says will be ‘doubly careful’
Aviation regulator DGCA issued a show-cause notice Wednesday to SpiceJet after its planes reported eight technical malfunctions over the past 18 days, as airline chief Ajay Singh said a lot of these incidents are “minor” in nature but assured the carrier will be “doubly careful” and strengthen aircraft inspection.
In its notice to SpiceJet, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said the airline has failed to “establish safe, efficient and reliable air services” under the terms of Rule 134 and Schedule XI of the Aircraft Rules, 1937.
