Another incident where DGCA/Ministers said "heads will roll' but as usual no action would be taken. And it's not a one of situation. It's the 3rd incident. It's time DGCA should look at safety also.

I just hope DGCA knows what safety is :rolleyes:

Media reported that viz was 1000 mtrs. It also reported that one aircraft entered active runway at the end and the other in the middle. They both rolled together and ATC asked them to diverge on noticing.

Now while the error could be from ATC side (conflicting reports of very similar tail numbers VT- BSC and VT- BCS or something like that), would the crew in the rear aircraft not notice another aircraft in front of them? :ouch:

What about TCAS.
