Indian aviation regulator DGCA has issued show-cause notices to SpiceJet and training organisation CSTPL for not imparting proper training to 90 pilots on the 737 Max simulator, officials said on Thursday.
Earlier this week, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) barred 90 SpiceJet pilots from operating Boeing 737 Max aircraft after finding them not properly trained.
The officials said the stick shaker — an equipment that vibrates when the aircraft is unable to lift itself — was not functioning in the Max simulator of CAE Simulation Training Pvt Ltd (CSTPL) when the aforementioned pilots were getting trained.
Therefore, the DGCA has issued show-cause notices to SpiceJet and CSTPL, they added.
