DGCA has suspended a designated examiner (DE) of Akasa Air for 6 months for violating rules during pilot skill tests. The airline claimed that it voluntarily reported the violation to the regulator. “Safety is of utmost priority at Akasa. Each DE and every other employee of the company upholds this standard in its highest form. The primary objective of any DE at Akasa is to ensure that all training and assessments meet prescribed regulatory and safety standards,” a spokesperson said.”
