On #December 27, 2024, the #DGCA suspended Akasa Air’s Director of Training, Niraj Bhatia, and Director of Flight Operations, Floyd Gracious, for six months. An October 7 audit revealed major lapses in pilot training, including the use of unqualified #simulators for Required Navigation Performance (#RNP) training and repeated violations of #aviation #safety standards. Despite show-cause notices, their responses were unsatisfactory. The DGCA has directed Akasa Air to appoint #replacements and emphasized strict adherence to safety regulations. This suspension adds to Akasa Air's ongoing challenges, further spotlighting operational and regulatory issues within the airline.

A quick look at Xmas Day traffic 🎄✈️ shows 15,598 flights across the network. But flying on which carriers, where? 🤔 As usual, it's a different-look top 10 to any other day, with no flights at all performed by #1 group Ryanair. On the #airline front, of note on the 25th: 📌 1,339 ✈️ by Turkish Airlines Group, in 1st place & very close to their year-to-date daily average (1,436, 3rd place) 📌 800 ✈️ by WizzAir Group, up to 3rd compared to 8th place YTD (837) 📌 423 ✈️ by easyJet puts the Group in 8th, vs YTD 1,554 & 2nd 📌 3 airline groups in the YTD top 10 don't appear (British Airways, SAS & Ryanair), with 3 from the YTD top 20 making the Xmas Day top 10 (Pegasus, Iberia Group & SWISS group) 👉 At State level, fewer easyJet, British Airways & zero Ryanair flights all contributed to the network's normally busiest State the UK 🇬🇧 dropping to 5th (1,664 ✈️ vs a YTD daily average of 5,499), with Spain 🇪🇸 seeing on the 25th the most traffic, 2,634 ✈️ (vs 4,993 YTD daily average). 2nd busiest on the 25th was Türkiye 🇹🇷 on 2,491 ✈️, compared to a YTD average of 3,148 and 6th place overall. Otherwise, similar rankings. Finally, a fairly similar-looking top 10 #airports albeit operating at varying ranges of normal levels, headed as in most weeks by iGA Istanbul Airport. iGA's 1,331 ✈️ on the 25th was closest to YTD levels (1,402); Amsterdam Schiphol was 2nd on the day with 1,046 ✈️ vs 1,338 YTD. 3rd place Paris CDG (1,043 ✈️) & 4th place London Heathrow (866 ✈️) reverse their YTD rankings (1,275 & 1,302 average daily ✈️ respectively).

B777-9 aircraft WH004 (N779XZ) that was found with the thrust link issue, is getting the new thrust links on the affected engine. On 15 August this year, Boeing discovered the broken thrust link on the N779XY (WH003) powered by the General Electric GE9X engines, after the test flight. Subsequent inspections revealed that the cracks issue persists on other B777X test fleet aircraft, those including on the registrations N779XW, N779XX, and N779XZ. 📸Paine Airport @mattcawby #aircraft #aviation
