A-320

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and Airbus, the largest European aircraft manufacturing company, have inked a contract for the establishment of Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) facilities dedicated to the A-320 family of aircraft.

IndiGo, India's largest private sector airline, turned optimistic about new non-stop international routes on its single-aisle A-320/A-321 series aircraft. In an exclusive interaction with NDTV, the airline's chief executive officer (CEO) Ronojoy Dutta expressed that it may operate profitably on the new routes with the mentioned fleet.

One hundred and seventy six passengers, including three infants, were aboard IndiGO flight 6E-6129, a flight between Pune and Jaipur, when the pilot declared a full emergency because of an engine stall. The plane was diverted to Mumbai.

A GoAir A-320 NEO with 146 passengers onboard was moments away from potential disaster when its flight crew lost sight of the runway just 50 feet above the surface of Bengaluru airport in foggy weather conditions.

After a series of engine-related malfunctions on its fleet of Airbus A-320 NEO jetliners, GoAir has stated that it will replace all potentially defective Pratt & Whitney 1100 series engines on its fleet by January 31.

An Airbus A-320 NEO airliner operated by carrier GoAir had a serious problem with one of its engines on Monday with some passengers reporting a fire in the tailpipe of the engine, the government's aviation watchdog, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has confirmed.

Worried by an alert by the US aviation watchdog, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation or DGCA has warned IndiGo Airlines that its Airbus A-320 NEO airliners could face a catastrophic situationif they continue to operate with unmodified engines.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has ordered a safety audit of IndiGo, India's largest airline which operates the A-320 NEO (New Engine Option) aircraft which has faced numerous engine issues with its next-generation Pratt & Whitney engines.

In a move that may impact the operations of no-frill carriers IndiGo and GoAir which operate the A-320 neo planes, the Delhi High Court today directed the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to state on affidavit that the remaining fleet of aircraft of this model, which have not yet been grounded, were safe and airworthy.

Airbus on Thursday took a new 1.3 billion euro ($1.6 billion) hit on its A400M military transport plane, lifting charges on Europe's troubled defence project above 8 billion euros and clouding higher-than-expected underlying profits.

IndiGo's chief financial officer Rohit Philip declined to comment on whether the airline would seek compensation from Airbus Group for the engine issues.

Budget carrier GoAir is planning to go for an initial public offer in the current fiscal year, ahead of the scheduled delivery of 72 new Airbus A-320 aircraft starting April next year.

Air India - fresh from its Monday evening scare of its Kajuraho-Varanasi flight catching fire while landing in Delhi - is speeding up its plans to replace its ageing fleet of Airbus A 320 planes.

If you fly Air India, there's a good chance that you've been on the sort of plane that made an emergency landing in Delhi on Monday evening. The Airbus A320, is a warhorse for the airline, with nearly 60 of these planes currently in service. The glaring problem, according to pilots who fly with the national carrier, is that 15 of them are far too ...

The type of plane that needed an emergency landing in Delhi on Monday night was described by pilots months ago as "lethal snag prone" aircraft of Air India. NDTV has accessed a letter sent in March by a pilots' association warning aviation regulator DGCA about the dangers of using elderly versions of the A-320, a model widely used and sold across ...
