Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) ne Kedarnath mein helicopter udane wale pilots ke liye **50 ghante** ki 'hill-flying' training zaroori kar di hai. Ye kadam **2025** ke tragic crash ke baad uthaya gaya hai taaki safety improve ho sake.
Naye safety standards ka elaan
AAIB ne Kedarnath valley mein chalne wale helicopter operations ke liye kadi guidelines jari ki hain. Ye decision June 2025 mein hue Aryan Aviation Bell 407 crash ke investigation ke baad aaya hai, jisme 7 logon ki jaan gayi thi. Investigation mein saaf hua ki ye mechanical failure nahi, balki kharab mausam mein pilot ke disoriented hone ki wajah se hua tha.
Kya badla hai?
Ab har pilot ko kam se kam 50 ghante ki supervised hill-flying training lena zaroori hoga. Iske alawa, regulator ne Uttarakhand Civil Aviation Development Authority ko Sitapur control center par voice logging mandatory karne ka order diya hai, taaki future mein har flight ka record rahe aur accountability badhe.
Business aur Investors par impact
In naye rules se heli-tourism sector mein compliance cost badhne wali hai. Char Dham sector ke operators ko ab pilot training aur system upgrades par zyada kharch karna padega. Halanki ye safety ke liye acha hai, lekin peak season mein agar operators training time par complete nahi kar paaye, toh flight capacity mein kami dekhne ko mil sakti hai.
2015 se lekar ab tak Char Dham sector mein 8 accidents aur 1 serious incident record hua hai. Investors ke liye ab dekhne wali baat ye hogi ki operators bina kisi service disruption ke in naye rules ko kaise implement karte hain. Consistent safety performance hi is sector mein lambe samay tak tikne ka raasta hai.
