Pilots rest rules: DGCA grants relaxation in night-duty limits; relief for airlines
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has relaxed certain night-duty limits for pilots as airlines prepare to implement new rest rules from November 1.
The DGCA has allowed pilots to make up to three landings if their duty hours fall between 12.00 am and 1.55 am or between 5.00 am and 6.00 am.
