Vistara official shunted for pilot training lapses

Send Push
NEW DELHI: Directorate General of Civil Aviation ( DGCA ) removed Capt Vikram Mohan Dayal , vice-president of (pilot) training at Vistara , after lapses were found in “conversion training” of pilots, a senior DGCA official said on Tuesday.

Officials said lapses were noticed in the conversion training of over 10 pilots and after inquiry, the regulator took action against the airline’s head of training.

Multiple pilots say Vistara’s pilot training leaves a lot to be desired. “It takes an unusually long time for a pilot to be released into service among other issues,” they said.
