U.S. aviation watchdog will review DGCA practices
The United States’ aviation watchdog, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), on Monday started its five-day audit of India’s safety regulator, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).
“This is a routine-check that is carried out every two to three years. This time it was delayed due to COVID-19,” a DGCA official said.
Under its International Aviation Safety Assessment (IASA) program, the FAA determines whether another country’s oversight of its airlines that operate to the U.S. or have a codeshare agreement with a U.S. airline comply with safety standards laid down by the global aviation watchdog International Civil Aviation Organisation.
