DGCA orders Air India to reinspect RAT after mid-air deployment
DGCA has directed Air India to reinspect the Ram Air Turbine (RAT) emergency system on its Boeing 787 aircraft. This follows an uncommanded mid-air deployment of RAT during a Birmingham-bound flight last week. DGCA has asked Air India to carefully review the recent 'D' check maintenance, especially replacement of Power Conditioning Module (PCM), to check for any mistakes or issues.
