NCAA suspends 10 private jet operators in Nigeria for failing recertification, citing illegal commercial activities. The aviation sector faces a regulatory crackdown amid compliance issues.
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has suspended the operations of 10 private jet operators for failing to undergo the required recertification processes. This action follows earlier warnings and directives to ensure compliance with aviation regulations, aimed at maintaining sector integrity.
The affected operators, including Azikel Dredging Nigeria Ltd, Bli-Aviation Safety Services, and others, were found to have engaged in unauthorized commercial flight activities contrary to their permits for non-commercial flights.
The NCAA emphasized its commitment to enforcing regulations and monitoring general aviation terminals to prevent further illegal operations.
