‘Airlines foggy about rules’

New Delhi: Though the Delhi airport seems to be on everybody’s hate list at the moment, the DGCA on Wednesday brushed aside allegations by private airlines like Kingfisher, that though they have CAT 3B trained pilots, they are being sidelined.
“Even if you have pilots who are CAT 3B trained, you need to get proper authorisations, which has not been done,” said Kanu Gohain, director general, DGCA.
The DGCA is also toying with the idea that when pilots come in for their licence renewals, the course be altered to an extent that they all become CAT3 trained. CAT 3B trained pilots can take off if the visibility is between 50-200 metres.
