The Director General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, Captain Muhtar Usman, has advocated for regular interactions between the Regulatory Authority and the Airline Operators of Nigeria.
Usman made the call during a meeting penultimate week with the airline operators at his Aviation House office.
The meeting was to discuss various issues affecting the aviation industry and proffer ways to build on the laudable gains so far.
Among the issues that were deliberated upon was the directive by the NCAA to the airlines to meet the deadline to join the automation platform for seamless remittance of 5 per cent ticket and cargo sales charge.
Others are that airlines should take advantage of the window of Billing Settlement Plan, Simulator training, Aircraft Inspection, etc.
At the end of the meeting, the DG thanked all present and reiterated that all airline operations must be carried out within the ambit of the law.
There was a consensus that the meeting should be a monthly affair, to be held precisely every last Wednesday of every month.
All the scheduled commercial airlines attended the meeting led by the AON Chairman, Captain Nogie Meggison, while all NCAA Directors were present.
