Airlines demand formation of air accident probe body

Airlines demand formation of air accident probe body

Nepal’s private airlines on Friday criticised the government for not establishing an independent aircraft accident investigation body as part of its international obligations to improve aviation safety and prevent accidents in the future.
 

The independent agency will probe accidents and incidents and recommend ways to prevent them in the future, and improve aviation services by identifying causative factors.

In September 2016, a meeting of the Asia Pacific Accident Investigation Group in Tokyo, Japan advised its member states to form an independent investigation unit as per Amendment 15 to International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Annex 13.
