Air India Mumbai to Ahmedabad flight cancelled
Air India’s flight AI2493 from Mumbai to Ahmedabad was cancelled on Monday after facing delays caused by operational issues, eventually leading to the expiry of the crew’s duty time, according to sources. The flight, which was supposed to be operated by an Airbus A321-211 aircraft (VT-PPL), was first delayed due to an unspecified operational issue. During this delay, the assigned crew reached the limit of their Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL), a rule that restricts the number of hours airline crew members can work for safety reasons.
Meanwhile, after the June 12 Air India-171 plane crash in Gujarat’s Ahmedabad the rescue operation lasted nearly four hours, involved around 650 personnel, and used approximately 7.5 lakh litres of water for firefighting and cooling, Ahmedabad Fire and Emergency Services Chief Fire Officer Amit Dongre said on Monday. “We received a call at around 1.43 pm on June 12. It was a disaster call… We responded from all 19 fire stations… More than 100 fire vehicles were deployed to mitigate this disaster… Four teams were formed for all four buildings… Around 31 people were saved alive during this rescue operation and were shifted to the civil hospitals with the help of NDRF, police department, CISF, SDRF, other NGOs and other fire departments,” Dongre told ANI.
