Indonesia AirAsia Confirms Airbus A320 Fleet Safety

Comprehensive Verification Process

Indonesia AirAsia has conducted a thorough verification of its Airbus A320 fleet following concerns raised by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) through an Airworthiness Directive (AD). The AD addressed potential issues with certain aircraft components being sensitive to solar radiation. Captain Achmad Sadikin Abdurachman, Acting CEO of Indonesia AirAsia, stated that the verification process confirmed the absence of the specific software component in question on their aircraft.

Safety Assurance

The airline's investigation revealed that the software component referenced in the EASA AD was not embodied in their Airbus A320 aircraft. Consequently, Indonesia AirAsia has declared that all of its A320 fleet remains airworthy and safe for continued operation. The company emphasized that no software rollback was required for their aircraft.

Operational Continuity

With this assurance, Indonesia AirAsia maintains uninterrupted service with its existing Airbus A320 fleet. The airline's proactive approach to safety and compliance with aviation regulations underscores its commitment to operational excellence and passenger safety. The verification outcome eliminates the need for any immediate operational adjustments or fleet grounding.
