New Delhi, June 22 (TIWN) The now-grounded Jet Airways is likely to take the skies again within six months from now.
Talking to IANS, Jet Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Welfare Association (JAMEWA) President Ashish Mohanty, said that as per the order, within 90 days, the Ministry and the Directorate General Civil Aviation should consider the request for slots, so that it will help Jet Airways to be back in the skies sooner. He added that Aircraft Operating Certificate (AOC) will have to be revived as soon as possible and clearance obtained from regulating authorities like DGCA and others. Training of pilots, engineers, crew and other licenced members are important requirements. Further, the 12 aircraft of the airline which have been grounded for past two years need to be restored after maintenance and made operational. "If everything goes well, we might fly by December or January," he said.
