Aircraft Veers Off Runway During Training in Baramati The recent incident at Baramati airstrip, where a training aircraft veered off the runway during a routine exercise, is a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities inherent in our aviation infrastructure.
Both occupants escaped unscathed, but the episode raises questions about the efficacy of our regulatory framework and the preparedness of our pilots.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has launched an investigation into this incident, which is welcome, but one wonders if it will yield meaningful insights or reforms.
