Following a series of concerning flight incidents involving Max Air’s Boeing 737 aircraft fleet, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has taken action by suspending the operations of the fleet. In a letter dated July 12, 2023, the NCAA announced the suspension of parts A3 and D43 of the operations specifications issued to Max Air, pending investigations conducted by a team of inspectors.

The team of inspectors will conduct an audit on Max Air’s Boeing 737 aircraft fleet, which has experienced several incidents since May. The letter from the NCAA instructed Max Air to immediately halt the operations of all Boeing B737 aircraft in their fleet.

The NCAA highlighted various incidents that contributed to their decision to closely examine Max Air’s fleet. One of these incidents involved the loss of a main landing gear wheel during take-off at Yola Airport in Adamawa State and on landing at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja on May 7. Additionally, the same Boeing 737-400 aircraft had to abort a take-off at Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport due to a high exhaust gas temperature indication on July 11.

Furthermore, Max Air’s B737-300 aircraft encountered a fuel contamination incident in its main fuel tanks, resulting in the shutdown of the auxiliary power unit while on the ground at Yola Airport on July 7. During a flight on July 11, the same aircraft experienced a duct overheat indication in the cockpit.

The NCAA has emphasized that the audit must satisfy its inspectors before the suspension can be lifted. The investigation aims to address the concerns surrounding Max Air’s Boeing 737 aircraft fleet and ensure the safety and compliance of their operations.
