A delegation from the British Ministry of Transport is set to begin an audit of the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority starting today (Monday). The team will review key areas, including licensing, airworthiness and flight standards, to assess compliance with international aviation regulations.
According to media reports, the review, which will last from January 27 to February 6, aims to assess Pakistan’s preparedness for a possible restoration of direct flight operations to the UK, which have been suspended since 2020. Officials will provide briefings to the visiting delegation.
The Civil Aviation Authority has reportedly completed preparations for the audit, ensuring compliance with all necessary standards. Employees have been instructed to remain available during the inspection to facilitate the process and answer any questions raised by the auditors.
