New Delhi: Air India's Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, grounded since January this year, will be ready to fly by the end of this month, said Boeing after their meeting with Air India management in New Delhi today.
"Engineers from Boeing are already in Mumbai and the aircraft will be flying from November 1, 2015," said Dinesh Keskar, president, Boeing India.
Keskar said this after his meeting with Air India chairman and managing director Ashwani Lohani today and discusses issues around the availability of spares for Boeing 787-Dreamliners.
Keskar said that not all spares are manufactured by Boeing and the availability of spares that take time are from vendors. "We are trying our best to ensure quick availability of spares. We are also arranging meetings between suppliers and Air India, where we are also present," Keskar added.
