Court pushes for quick resolution of Jet Airways insolvency India's National Company Law Tribunal is pushing for the corporate insolvency resolution process for Jet Airways to be fast-tracked, citing the national importance of the matter. An order from the Mumbai bench of the court appointed Ashish Chhawchharia from Grant Thornton as the interim resolution professional (IRP) and declared a moratorium on any action be creditors to recover assets or lodge legal action against Jet. That moratorium will run until the completion of the insolvency process, the court approves a resolution plan, or a liquidation is ordered. Chhawchharia has been ordered to provide fortnightly progress reports to the court, with the first due on 5 July. He was also directed to "make every possible effort to complete the corporate insolvency process at the earliest possible time". Under India's Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, the IRP has a statutory 180 day period to complete the resolution plan, which can be extended by a further 90 days. The court, however, asked the IRP and creditors to "expedite the matter and try to finalise the resolution plan on the fast track mode and they should not preferably wait for the completion of the statutory period of 180/270 days timeline permissible under IBC." Insolvency proceedings have also been launched in the Netherlands against Jet, however the Mumbai court directed Chhawchharia not to be influenced by that, given there is no specific agreement on insolvency between the two governments. State Bank of India, which is owed Rs18 billion ($258 million) from the carrier, filed for insolvency resolution after it failed to secure an investment deal with Etihad Aviation Group and other investors to take over the airline. The order notes that Jet's debts to operational creditors had exceeded $340 million by mid-December 2018. Pilots are also owed around Rs5.5 billion in unpaid wages, while the airline's engineers submitted a similar sized claim to the court. Jet was forced it to ground most of its fleet in late 2018 and reduce its operations until it suspended them on 17 April after it could not secure additional funding to maintain its operations.

Indonesia to extend VAT relief to leased aircraft Indonesia is close to extending its value added tax (VAT) relief to imported leased aircraft as a measure aimed at lowering airline's operating costs.Provision of the tax relief will likely be done through the revision of a 2015 government order, and be made public sometime this week, Suahasil Nazara, head of the country's Fiscal Policy Agency, said at a press conference on 21 June. He adds discussions to extend the relief have been going on "for a while," and coincided with the recent changes to the domestic airfare price floor and ceiling. He also stressed that the relief will help carriers to reduce their cost base. Since 2016 the government has provided VAT relief to airlines importing owned aircraft and aircraft components."In the latest revision, we hope that providing a VAT relief on imported leased aircraft, which is in the final stages of planning, will help to reduce the cost structure of airlines, says Nazara. His comments came one day after the transport ministry indicated that a policy to further reduce domestic airfares is being worked on by Jakarta. The transport ministry says this will be achieved by pushing low-cost carriers to reduce their domestic airfares on selected flights, encourage key industry players to lower their charges, along with the VAT relief. However, it remains unclear if this means that there will be further changes to the domestic price floor and ceiling. In March, the price floor on more than 1,000 domestic routes from 30% to 35% of the maximum limit. Two months later, Jakarta moved to reduce the price ceiling by up to 16%.

Air India gears up for Africa return; Express eyes more jets
Air India (AI, Mumbai Int'l) will resume scheduled passenger flights to Africa later this quarter, Indian Minister of Civil Aviation Hardeep Singh Puri has announced. In a tweet, Puri said 4x weekly Mumbai Int'l-Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta, Kenya flights would start from September 27. The service, which will reportedly be onboard B787-8 equipment, will help to bolster ties between India and Kenya. The state-owned flag carrier offers regular flights throughout Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. Meanwhile, Air India Express (IX, Mumbai Int'l) is gearing for its own international growth. The CEO of Air India's low-cost subsidiary, K Shyam Sundar, told The Times of India this past weekend that its board had recently approved a proposal to induct 11 more aircraft on a dry-lease basis given stronger than expected demand. Air India Express currently operates twentyfive B737-800s on flights to 33 cities across India as well as Oman, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Qatar, and Bahrain. "The matter has been referred to the (aviation) ministry for government clearance in view of the prevailing circumstances (hinting at the proposed divestment)," he said. "We have already drawn up a viable plan of operations for the proposed fleet expansion. There has been tremendous growth in AI Express‟ load factor and revenues in the current fiscal. At the current rate, the airline‟s turnover should go well past INR50 billion (USD719 million) in FY 19-20 against budgeted figure of INR47 billion (USD675.9 million). Revenue in FY 2018-19 was just a little over INR42 billion (USD604 million(,” he added.

Going public with concerns rare in aviation industry - expert

Problems within the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) must be very bad to prompt an employee to go public with their concerns, an industry expert says. The whistleblower told Newshub the authority has a "toxic work environment" that is putting the public at risk. "This is a safety regulator. The CAA's job is to protect the travelling public of New Zealand," he told Newshub. "How can you assure safety in an organisation that has this level of distrust and dysfunction?" •Explosive allegations from within the Civil Aviation Authority Aviation commentator Irene King told The AM Show on Monday it's "very unusual that an employee... felt forced to go into the public domain" in order to be heard. "

In our aviation safety culture, people are encouraged to speak out and to speak up. But on the other hand, they also expect to be listened to. I think what seems to be being described here is a culture that's stopped listening." In just over three years, 20 formal complaints have been made by staff at CAA about bullying, sexual harassment or inappropriate behaviour. King says there have been "consistent reports" of the aviation safety system being "fractured", but this might be the final straw that prompts a full inquiry. "If this was an airline, the CAA would come in and investigate and shut them down. We can't shut the regulator down - what we have to do is... have an independent inquiry into what the problems are." She said there were complaints about hot air balloon pilot Lance Hopping's use of cannabis and alcohol, before he was involved in a crash that killed 11 people in 2012; and there serious problems reported by auditors on the West Coast were ignored before the Fox Glacier helicopter crash, which left seven dead. Helicopter operators demand 'complete overhaul' of aviation safety after years of failures 'Huge issues in the industry': Father of pilot killed in Fox Glacier helicopter crash calls for tougher scrutiny of regulator CAA admits safety inspection failings over fatal helicopter crash Aviation NZ chief executive John Nicholson says the CAA and the aviation industry collectively are the system, and the system has to work. "That can only work if there is trust and respect on the part of both parties. We can't simply function efficiently if there is considerable distrust about CAA." He wants the allegations to be investigated "thoroughly and very quickly". "We can't have them hanging around and people wondering what is going on." King said in the meantime, Kiwis should have confidence they can fly safely. "I'm not saying that today, tomorrow, the next day we're going to have an accident - that's just hysteria." Transport Minister Phil Twyford has invited the whistleblower to talk, guaranteeing anonymity.
1 Chinese Aviation Ties Are Growing In Africa
As part of a wider diplomatic trend during the past decade, Chinese aviation ties with Africa are growing. In this issue of our forthcoming three-part series on the topic, we focus on the wider economic and political factors involved, as well as the needs and tools of the different parties. Diplomacy first As reported by The Economist, Africa has been attracting an “unprecedented” amount of foreign engagement lately, namely from China. Although Sino-African ties can be linked back to the Ming Dynasty, it really wasn‟t until the 1950s that modern relations were established. During that time, Sino-African ties were ideologically driven around anti-imperialism and lasted until the 1980s, when China sought to focus on developments at home. By the 2000s China had greatly industrialized and started seeking new markets, and new natural resources, to fuel it‟s „peaceful rise‟. Many African states, aggrieved by Western development practices of the past, look to China as an alternative path to change though cooperation and southsouth solidarity. And, the numbers are telling. According to World Bank data, 8.73% of SubSaharan exports are destined to China, only topped by India (9.28%). However, China makes up 16.42% of all imports into Sub-Saharan Africa, beating the next nations by 10 percentage points or more. Africa‟s aviation challenge number one – protectionist regulations Although Africa is home to a few successful airlines such as Ethiopian and Royal Air Maroc, challenges such as punitive and protectionist regulations have kept wide-scale success at bay.

Back in 1999, 44-member states of the African Union (AU) signed the Yamoussoukro Decision, and were set to liberalize the African sky as a way to promote growth and increase interconnectivity. 20 years later, this decision has yet to be fully implemented. In 2018, the AU launched the Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM) with the hopes of implementing the 1999 Yamoussoukro Decision as part of the Agenda 2063 project. For its part, China has said that it will assist Africa in implementing SAATM, and continue cooperating on technical issues such as satellite tracking and communication – an issue in the region. Challenge number two – cost

According to a 2017 press release by airline trade group IATA, African airlines face “high fixed costs”. Indeed, everything from fuel and taxes to insurance seems more expensive when operating from Africa compared to global industry averages.
3 Here, China has been categorical in its support to African states. Under the 2015 China-Africa regional aviation cooperation plan, the People‟s Republic is set to encourage Sino-African joint ventures in commercial aviation and “render greater support to guarantee policy environment and capital”. Indeed, China has many tools at its disposal to reach this goal. On one hand, the concerted push for joint ventures may raise investor appetite and decrease individual shareholder exposure, promoting long-term viability. On the other, our research finds 13+ aviation finance firms owned and/or controlled by Chinese entities. These firms, some of which are state-owned, can offer attractive lease terms and thus, spur fleet growth on the continent.

With an increasing amount of direct flights between China and Africa, such as Air Madagascar and more recently RwandAir flights to Guangzhou, this right has been used repeatedly. Chinese ties with African aviation have a unique, developmental, political dimension. For African states, Chinese investment in their domestic and international connectivity capacity is certainly not an opportunity one should ignore. Likewise, for the Chinese state and the PRC‟s commercial entities, the African commercial aviation market is a largely untapped one to be developed and used in support of the PRC‟s long-term „peaceful rise‟. What are your thoughts on these developments? Let us know in the comments.
