India - Skremmende dårlig flysikkerhet

Audit casts shadow on India's air safety


India fares worse than countries such as Bangladesh, Maldives, Nepal and Bhutan when it comes to following air safety regulations, an audit has revealed.

According to documents accessed by HT, the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) - the global policy maker for air safety - which conducted the audit, was not satisfied with most parameters set for effective implementation of safety norms.

The parameters where India performed badly include flight operations, air regulation and accident investigation.

The audit has a universal methodology wherein the ICAO asks the aviation safety regulator, in India's case the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), to respond to a list of protocol questions. Of the 12 parameters, the DGCA was unable to satisfy even one completely.
