This, at a time, when the country is all set to leap into the big league of aviation nations

Dangerous Flying!
Pratt & Whitney may have found a solution to the unending woes for its engines powering the A320 new engine option (neo) aircraft, however, the fact remains that the grounding of the planes and Airbus' decision to stop delivery of planes with PW engines has dealt a severe blow to IndiGo and GoAir's growth plans. IndiGo is one the biggest buyers of the aircraft, with more than 350 aircraft yet to be delivered, while GoAir is the next in line with orders for 131 neos
