 Buddha
Air has prided itself in maintaining safety as the highest
priority. Pilots and engineers are sent on regular training
programs directly to the manufacturing companies for the ATR
and Beech craft training. Buddha Air makes no monetary
compromise on the aircraft’s maintenance and each aircraft
is thoroughly checked before every take off and after every
landing.
The Beech craft
1900D and the ATR 42 – 320 both have their own unique
inspection procedure. Qualified and certified aircraft
maintenance engineers with many years of experience from the
company’s Engineering Department carry out a detailed daily
safety inspection check that follows the following standard
procedure as mentioned in the current Nepalese Civil
Airworthiness Requirement and the aircraft’s maintenance
manual given by the manufacturer. After each check has been
done as per the requirement, the technician gets the form
signed by the head of the Department. If there is even the
slightest technical fault the flight is halted and
passengers are flown in another aircraft that has passed the
daily inspection routine. Besides the daily inspection
routine the aircrafts are also checked during every transit
of the operation. For the assurance of our clients we have
listed the details of the procedure below.
