Vistara is one of the finest airlines, with a proven track record of excellent service. The Indian Aviation Authority recently levied a large fine for it. But first, let us examine what went wrong with airlines. Vistara, an Indian joint venture between conglomerate Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, has been penalised after a first officer failed to complete mandatory training and landed a passenger flight.
One of the planes that had been shot down According to a senior official at the country’s aviation regulator who declined to be identified while speaking about a confidential investigation, this incident, which occurred during a landing in the central Indian city of Indore in August last year, was a serious violation that endangered the lives of passengers on board.
According to the authority, the captain of the flight, which departed from New Delhi, was not adequately educated on how to instruct a first officer during such landings.
The plane landed safely and without incident, with no one injured. According to the official, Vistara, which is 51 percent controlled by India’s largest conglomerate Tata and the rest by Singapore Airlines, was fined one million rupees (S$17,700).

According to the official, Vistara issued the first officer take-off and landing clearance without doing any training. Before they may land, or even direct colleagues to land, an aircraft with passengers on board, both first officers and captains must train on flight simulators. According to the official, Vistara broke the rules.

The pilots had sufficient training to undertake a so-called supervised take-off and landing, and their certifications were provided by a former company, which Vistara took credit for, according to a statement released on Thursday by the airline.
The incident, which Vistara voluntarily reported to regulators, was a “regrettable infraction,” according to the airline, and the pilots will be retrained to comply with the rules.

Boeing has achieved a significant milestone by providing NASA with the second core stage of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
This crucial component, crafted at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF), is set to propel the Artemis II crew into lunar orbit, marking humanity’s return to deep space after a 50-year hiatus.
The monumental Boeing-built rocket stage, the largest element of the Artemis II mission, will embark on a journey aboard the Pegasus barge, traveling 900 miles to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

Upon arrival, it will be meticulously integrated with other essential Artemis II components, including the upper stage, solid rocket boosters, and NASA’s Orion spacecraft within the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building. This intricate integration process is a vital step toward the eagerly anticipated Artemis II launch, slated for 2025.
“Boeing-built products helped land humankind on the moon in 1969, and we’re proud to continue that legacy through the Artemis generation,” remarked Dave Dutcher, vice president and program manager for Boeing’s SLS program. “Together, with NASA and our industry partners and suppliers, we are building the world’s most capable rocket and paving the way to deep space through America’s rocket factory in New Orleans.”

The delivery of Core Stage 2 marks a significant achievement in the evolution of the SLS rocket. Towering over 200 feet and powered by four RS-25 engines, this core stage, coupled with two solid-fueled booster rockets, will generate a staggering 8.8 million pounds of thrust. This immense power is crucial to launching Artemis II and future missions into the vast expanse of space.
The SLS rocket stands unparalleled in its capability to transport both crew and substantial cargo to the moon and beyond in a single launch. Its extraordinary capacity will facilitate the delivery of human-rated spacecraft, habitats, and scientific missions to destinations including the moon and Mars, ushering in a new era of space exploration.
