DGCA deregisters three SpiceJet aircraft after lessor puts in request

The DGCA deregistered three SpiceJet aircraft on Thursday, five days after their lessor Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE) asked the aviation regulator for it, sources said. Moreover, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is expected to deregister another SpiceJet aircraft on Friday, acceding to the request put forward by Irish lessor company Alterna aircraft on August 1, they added. DAE and Alterna had put in the Irrevocable Deregistration and Export Request Authorisation (IDERA) requests to deregister the aforementioned four planes. The IDERA request is usually filed by a lessor when its negotiation with the airline regarding payment of dues fails. While SpiceJet did not issue any fresh statement on Thursday, it had issued a communiqu on the DAE's action earlier this week.
