Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority Suspends Max Air's Boeing 737 Fleet

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has taken the decision to suspend all Boeing 737 aircraft in the fleet of Max Air, one of the leading airlines in Nigeria. The immediate suspension directive comes as a result of safety concerns surrounding the airline's Boeing 737 planes.

This move by the regulatory authority follows a number of incidents involving some of Max Air's Boeing 737 aircraft. The NCAA has deemed it necessary to conduct a comprehensive audit on all Boeing 737 planes operated by Max Air.

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority has suspended Parts A3 (Aircraft Authorization) and D43 (Aircraft Listing) of the Operations Specifications issued to Max Air Ltd. with regards to the operations of the Boeing B737 aircraft type.

The audit team, constituted by the NCAA, will meticulously inspect and evaluate the safety protocols, maintenance practices, and operational aspects of Max Air's Boeing 737 aircraft fleet. This thorough audit is aimed at ensuring that all necessary safety measures are in place and that the airline's planes meet the required standards.

Max Air, one of Nigeria's most prominent airlines, has expressed its commitment to fully cooperate with the inspection team and the NCAA regulators. The airline emphasizes its dedication to maintaining the highest level of safety for its passengers and crew members.

This suspension will remain in effect until the audit team concludes its evaluation and provides the NCAA with a comprehensive report. Based on the findings of the audit, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority will determine the appropriate course of action.

Airline passengers in Nigeria are reassured that the regulatory authority is diligently addressing safety issues and taking necessary measures to ensure the safe operation of all airlines in the country.

Max Air operates both domestic and international flights, and the suspension of its Boeing 737 fleet may cause disruptions for passengers scheduled to travel on the affected routes. Passengers affected by the suspension are encouraged to check with the airline for alternative arrangements or refunds.

The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority remains steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding the interests of air travelers and ensuring safety in the aviation sector. The ongoing audit of Max Air's Boeing 737 fleet is a testament to the authority's dedication to upholding the highest safety standards in Nigerian aviation.
