[New Delhi]DGCA Warned National Carrier not to fly Without Mandatory Minimum Equipment List.
Mandatory Minimum Equipment List has been revised by regulator but National carrier was not found equipped with it so
Aviation Regulator DGCA has warned national carrier Air India not to fly any of its Airbus A319 planes unless it carries onboard a revised copy of the mandatory minimum equipment list.
The issue came to the notice during a Directorate General of Civil Aviation inspection of one of its planes at Mumbai Airport, in which the Flight Operations Inspector found the aircraft having an old version of the document onboard.
Air India, however, said that it has taken “rectified” the mistake, after it received the DGCA communication on the issue.
The list, which enables the commander to determine whether a flight may be commenced or continued from any intermediate stop in the eventuality of any instrument, equipment or systems becoming inoperative, was revised in November 2014 but Air India was doing with the copy of the old version, sources said.
