A single-seater aircraft crash-landed during a training session in Maharashtra’s Pune district on July 25. The cadet pilot escaped with minor injuries.
A senior DGCA official said the accident happened due to suspected loss of power.
The aircraft involved was a Cessna 152. It belonged to a pilot-training academy, Carver Aviation.
The accident took place in Indapur tehsil after the aircraft took off from Baramati airport in Pune, a police official said.
The cadet pilot, Bhavika Rathod, was admitted to a hospital. She received minor injuries, a medical officer from a primary health centre in Shelgaon, who had gone to the accident spot, told PTI.
Following multiple accidents involving flying training organisations, the DGCA audited 30 out of a total 32 of them and suspended the licence of one one aviation academy last month and suspended eight instructors.
