DGCA flags RAT issues, orders Air India fleet review
Mint Ahmedabad
|October 13, 2025
India’s Aviation safety regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has directed Air India to reinspect Ram Air Turbine (RAT) stowage on all aircraft where the power conditioning module (PCM) was replaced recently.
The move follows two recent technical incidents involving the airline’s Boeing 787s.
“Air India has been advised to reinspect the RAT for stowage for all aircraft whose PCM module was replaced in recent past,” a senior DGCA official said. The PCM is an essential part of a B787 aircraft’s electrical power system. The official said that further investigation in the Amritsar-Birmingham flight, where the RAT was automatically deployed, is in progress.
