Safety Regulations

Vistara airlines was fined Rs 10 lakh for violating safety regulations after an untrained pilot landed a flight in Indore. On June 2, the Director-General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) imposed the fine, saying, "This was a serious violation endangering lives of the passengers on board". Notably, the pilot on board was not trained to land a flight in a stimulator, which is a necessary requirement before flying craft with passengers.
