Mumbai: Aviation safety regulator DGCA has temporarily suspended the Boeing simulator training facility of Air India for certain alleged lapses, a source has said.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is "verifying" some of the documents pertaining to the matter and will take a call on the restoration of the training facility once it completes the process, the source said.
When contacted, a senior Air India official said DGCA carries out routine checks (on airlines) but did not divulge details.
"DGCA has temporarily suspended Air India's Boeing simulator training facility for certain lapses. The regulator is verifying some documents related to the matter," the source said.
The regulatory action against the Tata Group-owned Air India came days after a two-member DGCA inspection team allegedly found lapses in the airline's internal safety audit reporting, prompting it to launch a probe in the matter.
A decision on the restoration of the training at the facility will be taken once the documents' "verification" process is completed, the source said.
Air India wide-body fleet comprises Boeing 777 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
