New Delhi, 26/6: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is in the process of coming up with new guidelines for pilots flying in turbulent conditions.
Recently, a Srinagar-bound IndiGo flight from Delhi with more than 200 people on board experienced turbulence due to inclement weather. The weather prompted the pilot to report the “emergency” to air traffic control at Srinagar and the aircraft later landed safely. Videos of the moments of turbulence were shared on social media in which panic-stricken passengers were heard making religious supplications as the plane swayed.
