FAA team begins aviation safety rating audit for DGCA team in India
The Federal Aviation Administrations (FAA), the United Nations (UN) body for aviation safety, has initiated an evaluation of the safety rating of India’s aviation, along with licensing of personnel and airworthiness of aircraft.
The FAA conducts aviation regulators’ adherence to the norms led by International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).
According to a senior official of the regulatory body in India, a five-member team of FAA is currently in the country for the audit of safety guidelines, including the licensing of personnel and airworthiness.
“The safety audit by FAA is expected to emphasise upon the key areas of issuing licences to personnel involved in this sector as well as aircraft’s airworthiness,” the top official told ANI.
