Lessors are likely to take a longer time to fly the Go First’s deregistered 54 planes out of the country as the majority of the planes require engine and spare parts, according to industry experts. Out of the 54 planes, around 24 that were in a flying condition when the airline stopped operations last May have not undergone continued maintenance while 30 are without engines and spare parts.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has deregistered all the 54 remaining aircraft of Go First after a Delhi High Court ruling on April 26 that allowed lessors to take back the leased planes.
