Aviation regulator DGCA on Tuesday said it has suspended the licenses of two Alliance Air’s pilots whose actions led to their plane overshooting the runway while landing at the Jabalpur airport on March 12.
In a statement, the regulator said the two pilots were operating an ATR-72 aircraft from Delhi to Jabalpur on March 12.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said its probe found that during landing at the Jabalpur airport, the aircraft floated for a long period and touched down approximately 900 metres after the aiming point (touchdown point).
