Indian civil aviation regulator, the DGCA said on Sunday that the US'
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has conducted its audit in the
areas covering aircraft operations, airworthiness and personnel
licensing and termed it "very satisfactory'.
A Directorate
General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) statement here said that the FAA had
carried out its audit between July 16-20 under its International
Aviation Safety Assessment programme. "At the end of the
five-day audit, the FAA team gave a verbal out-brief listing the
observations which relate to regulatory and guidance material issues
within DGCA. Overall the audit has been very satisfactory," it said.
The
American aviation regulator's team was shown regulations, including
extensive technical guidance, in the areas of operations, airworthiness,
surveillance and enforcement for the use of DGCA's safety inspectors
for carrying out licensing, certification, and approval obligations
along with certification records, the statement said.
"The
training programme provided to the technical officers and inspectors and
records therein was also shown to the FAA audit team," it said.
"As
per FAA's established process, a written report will be provided within
next 30 days and thereafter FAA team will come for a final consultation
within 65 days wherein DGCA shall present the action taken on the
observations."
Meanwhile, the DGCA is commencing action on the
observations made by FAA team "and is very confident to address all
those within the timelines", it added.
