DGCA fines IndiGo and signals limits on aggressive efficiency measures India's civil aviation regulator has fined IndiGo — a penalty described as modest in value — but framed the action as a clear signal that regulators will curb aggressive efficiency measures. The DGCA's move emphasizes enforcement of operational standards over cost‑cutting practices.

APAC Helicopter Market 2025: Aging Fleets, Uneven Regulation and Capability Gaps Rotortrade's APAC Helicopter Market Report 2025 finds helicopter fleets across the Asia‑Pacific are ageing, regulatory standards vary significantly between countries, and operator capability is uneven. These combined trends create near‑term maintenance burdens and operational risk profiles that will shape procurement and MRO demand across the region.
