The move reportedly followed unsatisfactory explanation from carrier that the pilots' mandatory six-month pilot proficiency check (PPC) had lapsed because of an ambiguity in the rules governing such checks. DGCA audit reveals shortage of trainers at Jet Airways: report News 7-Oct-2014 9:54 AM India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) audit on Jet Airways reportedly revealed that the carrier has been reduced pilot training and is facing a shortage of trainers across its ATR and Boeing fleets (Economic Times, 06-Oct-2014). The report reportedly notes: "Strength of trainers in Jet Airways training facilities is found substantially low as per the recommended strength in the Directorate General of Civil Aviation operations circular as well as training manual for all types of fleet, except Airbus 330". According to the report, the airline's training division is overlooking numerous deficiencies, with the report stating: "...in many cases signatures of trainee and trainers were missing" and also certifications by trainers and rule check forms were "not appropriately filed". Jet Airways said it underwent a DGCA audit in Aug-2014 for which it has filed all necessary res ponses with the regulator. The carrier said: "As per standard industry practice, Jet Airways will be guided by the regulator for any further action".

This shortage had resulted into a delay in more than 150 flights on Sunday and Monday. The DGCA recently issued show cause notices to 131 pilots at Jet for lapsed proficiency check certificates. These are issued after pilots undergo two test flights on simulators every year. It is important to note, this isn't the only instance of incomplete documentation. Recently, Jet Airways discovered that three of its pilots were flying without valid annual line check certificates. For those who are wondering what line check certification is? It's a process wherein a trainer monitors pilot's flying skills by sitting in the cockpit through a flight. The main reason behind this is to ensure that all defined norms are followed in letter and spirit. Whoa - what's happening here? Is 9W really slacking off? _________________ We miss you Nalini!

This follows a shortage of pilots for its Boeing 737 fleet, which has resulted in flight delays through the past few days. “It is also working on a stepped-up training and transfer schedule of pilots from JetLite to Jet Airways, in line with DGCA (Directorate of Civil Aviation) guidelines,” the airline said. Jet, however, didn’t specify which wide-bodied aircraft (Boeing 777 or Airbus A330) were being used. The reason the airline is seeing a shortage of crew is 25-30 Boeing 737 pilots have been deputed to Etihad Airways are undergoing training on for Boeing 777 aircraft. This has grounded a few Boeing 737 of JetLite, Jet’s subsidiary. “The pilots will be on deputation to Etihad for a year. We are facing a shortage of pilots. Often, pilots are being requested at a short notice and, at the end of flights, they are asked whether they can manage additional flights. In the duty roster, there is no mention of the crew for a large number of flights…the space is blank,” said a source. While Jet Airways confirmed flight delays, it didn’t comment on the deputation of pilots to Etihad. “The disruption was due to the compounding effect of several issues, including the unforeseen maintenance requirements on JetLite aircraft, training and certification requirements at Jet Airways and the pending transfer of JetLite pilots to Jet Airways to meet the needs of the expanded schedule,” the airline said. "Jet Airways is deploying international wide body aircraft on the domestic sector to re-accommodate its guests and is also working on a stepped-up training and transfer schedule of pilots from JetLite to Jet Airways in line with DGCA guidelines,'' it added. _________________ 11000 posts (and counting) on Airliners-India.

I did not catch the rego at the airport since I was rushing in for my flight, but FR24 shows that it was VT-JWQ, an A332, doing the popular 9W302 DEL-BOM flight. I do not know about the other operations: this was just something that caught my eye as I was huffing and puffing towards my gate (28A). 9W have WB domestic ops only one in a blue moon: it should not cost them much to advertise this on email and the web at least. At least we aviation enthusiasts will be interested. A well-filled A332 will not do badly on a 2 hour DEL-BOM run, and will do even better on the 2.5 hour (DEL-MAA/BLR) runs, but will 9W get enough passengers to fill their planes? And that too, without advertising this widely? Even if this means clubbing a few flights? Cheers, Sumantra.

Looking at Flightradar24's logs, the use of the A330 seems sporadic, so probably an equipment sub - but I don't seem to notice them being used in this way on any other route. Btw, I noticed this phenomenon because I had to meet somebody arriving on the 442 at BOM and there was an equipment change to A330-300. I can tell you it's a real pain in the neck when your domestic flight gets switched to a widebody, at least on Jet - you can't park on the domestic apron as there's no bay large enough to accommodate it, so you exit the runway at the domestic apron end on Rwy. 27, taxi the length of the airport to the international apron, then take a bus all the way back to the domestic terminal! This being Jet, my friend ranted that they seemed totally unprepared for the equipment change and doors didn't open for almost twenty minutes after engine shutdown - then there weren't any buses available, ergo another fifteen minutes waiting for a bus, then people were crammed into few available buses (including J pax). Shambolic.

Good - the pilots shortage has benefited the wide bodies, at least they are catching some action now . Of course why 9W has a pilot shortage is beyond me.

Clear as Mud - the 9W 77W story ... so far VT-JEA -> To Thai as HS-TKG -> To Jet as VT-JEN -> To Turkish as VT-JEN -> To Jet as VT-JEN VT-JEB -> To Thai as HS-TKH -> To Jet as VT-JEP -> To Turkish as VT-JEP -> To Jet as VT-JEP VT-JEC -> To Turkish as TC-JJD -> To Thai as HS-TKT -> To Jet as VT-JES -> To Etihad as A6-JAA VT-JED -> To Turkish as TC-JJA -> To Thai as HS-TKS -> To Jet as VT-JER -> To Etihad as A6-JAB VT-JEE -> To Turkish as TC-JJC -> To Jet as VT-JEL (II) -> To Etihad as A6-JAF VT-JEF -> To Turkish as TC-JJB -> To Jet as VT-JEM -> To Turkish as VT-JEM -> To Jet as VT-JEM VT-JEG -> To Gulf Air as VT-JEG -> To Jet as VT-JEG VT-JEH -> To Gulf Air as VT-JEH -> To Jet as VT-JEH VT-JEJ -> To Gulf Air as VT-JEJ -> To Thai as HS-TKJ -> To Jet as VT-JEQ VT-JEK VT-JEL (I) -> ntu -> To Abu Dhabi Emiri Flight (V.I.P.) as A6-SIL 9W's leasing strategy seems to be inspired by the plot of Inception Back to top Nimish Member Joined: 16 Dec 2006 Posts: 9757 Location: Bangalore, India Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2014 3:14 pm    Post subject: ^^ _________________ We miss you Nalini!

Jet Airways responded to the reports, stating: “A DGCA certification drill was conducted on 27th October for the A330 aircraft where certain observations were made by the DGCA and airline has made a note and will accordingly carry out the required changes. Jet Airways would like to clarify that there were no suspensions. The crew will go through the drill again in the coming week.” Back to top mayankarora1411 Member Joined: 19 Dec 2013 Posts: 35 Posted: Wed Nov 05, 2014 8:04 pm    Post subject: B777 VT-JEM flew as 9W 354 from Delhi to Mumbai yesterday.

VT-JEM has been returned to 9W and ferried to DEL today. VT-JEN has been ferried to Abu Dhabi today to be repainted in possibly EY colors. This might indicate JEN & JEP going directly to EY rather than returning to 9W colors first. _________________ 11000 posts (and counting) on Airliners-India.

May be the investment and involvement of EY is beginning to pay off. Oil prices may have something to do with it. But there are still headwinds in the domestic market, Vistara will be a direct competitor and after 5/20 rule is relaxed to 1 year, Vistara and others could poach some of the traffic away from Jet.

Believe it when you see it. They have four sparkling new planes but are yet to carry their first passenger. _________________ Yeah.

Mint reports that Jet "sprang a surprise by posting its first profit in seven quarters on Friday, helped by the sale of its frequent flyer programme, but excluding the one-off gain, it remained in the red". http://www.livemint.com/Companies/Duh1nlp2vZeipoKdfHieKI/Jet-Airways-swings-to-profit-on-sale-of-frequent-flyer-progr.html Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Airliners-India.com Forum Index -> Civil Aviation All times are GMT + 5.5 Hours Goto page Previous  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10  Next Page 2 of 10   Jump to: Select a forum New Members----------------Sign-up Guidelines Airliners-India----------------Civil AviationNon AviationTrip ReportsMilitary Aviation & SpaceInternationalAviation Polls & PreferenceTech/OpsAviation PhotographyEditorial/Analysis/ArticlesAviation HobbyAviation LawAviation Questions & CareersSite Related Flickr Group----------------Photo of the Month My Message Board----------------Pin Up  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © phpBB Group.
