DGCA suspends simulator training for A320 pilots at Air India’s Hyderabad facility
Aviation watchdog DGCA has suspended simulator training activities for A320 pilots at Air India’s facility in Hyderabad, close on the heels of suspending the training activities for Boeing pilots at the Tata Group-owned airline’s facility in Mumbai, according to sources. The two decisions by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in a span of just three days could pose operational challenges for Air India as currently the carrier cannot train narrow-body and wide-body pilots at its own training facilities.
