An Indian politician opened the emergency door on an Indigo flight, resulting in a two-hour delay.
Last month, BJP leader Tejasvi Surya, an Indian politician, opened the emergency exit of an IndiGo flight. that resulted in the flight’s departure being delayed.
IndiGo said on December 10, a passenger accidentally opened the emergency exit of its flight 6E 7339 (Chennai to Tiruchirapalli) at the Chennai airport during the boarding process, when the plane was on the tarmac. The passenger apologized, said the airline.
“It’s important not to be circumspect. Look at the facts. The door did open by mistake, all checks were taken, and only after that, the plane was allowed to take off. And he also said sorry for it himself,” Mr. Scindia Aviation Minister told reporters.
Opening the emergency doors causes one incident. Since unlocking the door technically required more effort, this has become a highlight. Additionally, if somebody made a mistake, they should be held accountable and given penalties for the delay. But because of the type of position importance, the incident was ignored. that started a discussion on Twitter. It is difficult to accidentally open the door, according to some users. It opens with the right steps. Many of them had differing opinions.
This is how Tejasvi Surya might have “accidentally" opened the emergency exit by "lightly resting his hand on the door".
Passengers & Indigo must thank Surya for not doing this midair! pic.twitter.com/MiYizJSwon

Tejasvi Surya is an illustration of what will occur if youngsters who are playing video games are granted ownership. It has come to light that some young people tried to open the plane’s emergency exit door. Why jeopardize the safety of the passengers? “The Karnataka Congress questioned.
“What was the MP hoping to achieve? What plans existed to bring about a catastrophe? He apologized and was moved to the back seat, but why? “The Prime Minister was questioned by the Congress on who he would have held responsible for a catastrophe if the “prank” had been pulled after takeoff.
Priyanka Chaturvedi, a Shiv Sena member, posted: “Shouldn’t this incidence be considered suo moto? Should an apology be sufficient if this occurred after the plane had already taken off rather than while it was still on the runway?”
It's not easy to pop open an emergency exit door of an aircraft by 'accident'.
Why has @IndiGo6E, @DGCAIndia, @JM_Scindia tried to cover up the breach from us good citizens for this long?

“The traveler quickly expressed regret for what she had done. The event was reported in accordance with SOP (Standard Operating Procedure), and the aircraft conducted necessary engineering tests, which delayed the flight’s departure “IndiGo’s statement on Tuesday made no mention of the flyer’s name.
According to a senior representative of the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, the event was properly reported and safety was not jeopardized. He said that the passenger had accidentally opened the “Right-Hand emergency escape.”
To owner of @IndiGo6E not having the courage to name Tejasvi Surya who did a level 3 offence tells you the rich are also very poor in india… https://t.co/ari4erBB3F

“The crew took note, and as a result, all necessary airworthiness procedures were completed before the aircraft was released for takeoff, including the reinstallation of the door and a pressurisation check. No security was jeopardised “the DGCA representative informed PTI.
A well-known aircraft manufacturer, Embraer, is in talks to partner up with Tata Group and Mahindra Group to build up local manufacturing capabilities in India. With the help of this strategic alliance, India’s aerospace sector will expand, domestic manufacturing will be strengthened, and jobs will be generated.
“Tata told us that their initial focus would be on large aircraft, including Airbus and Boeing. After that, they would consider smaller, regional aircraft, and there is the market where we are,” according to president and CEO Francisco Gomes Neto.
While Airbus and Boeing dominate the market for bigger commercial planes, Embraer is a market leader in regional aviation. By the end of 2023, the business wants to have decided on an Indian partner for the production of defense aircraft.
The Indian Air Force (IAF) is looking for medium-transport aircraft that have a lifting capacity of 18 to 30 tonnes. It aims to finish this search by 2025 or 2026. The C-390 Millennium multi-mission tactical air transport aircraft, the newest defense offering from Embraer, which debuted the plane at Aero India 2023 in Bengaluru in February, has been pushed for the order.
According to CEO Neto, Embraer sees “a good opportunity” in India. “The IAF has already seen our aircraft, and they approve. We have received positive feedback about the C-390 Millennium from nations like the Netherlands. We believe that the C-390 Millennium is the greatest option for that size of aircraft.
The Indian defense aviation market is not new to Embraer. The business has previously worked with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) to produce three Netra airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft based on the ERJ145 platform of Embraer, which are used by the Indian Air Force (IAF). The IAF and the Border Security Force (BSF) both use Embraer Legacy 600 aircraft to fly VIPs and government officials.
The partnership combines the skills and strengths of each partner. Together with Tata Group’s manufacturing capabilities and Mahindra Group’s technical know-how, Embraer’s extensive domain understanding and technological expertise in the aerospace sector form a potent partnership that can provide high-quality products and solutions.
Embraer, Tata Group, and Mahindra Group’s cooperation paves the way for sustained success and growth. This cooperation can investigate the potential in both domestic and foreign markets as the demand for aircraft goods and services keeps growing. Together, it can boost India’s position as a major center of manufacturing, which would benefit the country’s aerospace sector as well.
The first B-52 from the U.S. Air Force has landed at Boeing to start receiving improvements under the Radar Modernization Programme.
The RMP programme will equip the B-52 with “fighter-like” radar capabilities, enhancing navigational precision, targeting, and tracking, as well as delivering fresh, high-resolution mapping. Additionally, numerous targets can be engaged at once by the new radar.

According to Jennifer Wong, director of Bomber Programmes, “The B-52 brings unique, critical capabilities to the U.S. Air Force as they move to a future two-bomber platform strategy.” We are improving the B-52 radar to make the aircraft more relevant to the warfighter for tactical assault or close air support.
Boeing started low-rate initial manufacture of the new radar system for operational test and evaluation after the radar programme Critical Design Review was completed on schedule. Modernization of the B-52 is being done at Boeing facilities in San Antonio and Oklahoma City.
Modern active electronically scanned array radar, two big area touch-screen displays with high clarity, two display sensor system processors to link the radar with other B-52 systems, two hand controllers, and a new wide-band radome on the aircraft’s nose are all part of the RMP programme modifications.
Volaris, a Mexican ultra-low-cost airline, is the first airline based outside of the United States to receive an Airbus A320neo built in Airbus’ Alabama production site.

A third Final Assembly Line, is now being added as part of a proposal to expand Airbus’ Alabama business and boost A320 Family aircraft manufacturing.
According to the Alabama Department of Commerce, the expansion will result in the creation of 1,000 jobs. In Latin America and the Caribbean, Airbus has sold more than 1,150 aircraft. In the region, more than 750 are in use, and another 500 are in the order backlog, accounting for a market share of approximately 60% of passenger aircraft now in service.
