Fatal Flaws in India's Aviation Training Regime The recent crash of a twin engine training aircraft near Ganga Barrage in Kanpur has left two pilots dead, raising questions about the safety standards and regulatory oversight in India's aviation industry.
This incident follows another accident at the same flying school just two months ago, where a cadet pilot was seriously injured by a propeller.
The Tecnam P2006T aircraft involved in Thursday's crash is a type that has been implicated in previous accidents worldwide due to its relatively lightweight construction and underpowered engines.
