Directorate General of Civil Aviation, DGCA has called an urgent meeting with Indigo and GoAir today to review the performance of the Airbus Neo aircraft in their fleets.

In a tweet, the DGCA said the meeting will take place this afternoon. The issues related to the A320 Neo aircraft’s P&W engine, which both the airlines haves been facing for years, is likely to be discussed at the meeting. The two budget carriers have been facing glitches in the P&W engine that powers many of their A320 planes.

The P&W engine-powered A320 neo planes in the fleets of the two airlines have been facing glitches both mid-air and on-ground since their induction way back in 2016, which has also led to grounding of some planes.
