The management of the Nigerian-based airline, Air Peace, on Monday has confirmed the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority (UK CAA) letter to Nigeria’s Civil Aviation Authority, saying all issues raised, including the use of Electronic Flight Bag (EFB), have been resolved.
The airline said it was responding to some media reports alleging a safety breach by Air Peace in the United Kingdom, which it said contain a lot of falsehood aimed at creating fears and doubts in the minds of the flying public.
It explained that from the commencement of its inaugural flight to London, its operations have been subjected to intense scrutiny by the relevant authorities, ‘which we most welcome as we pride ourselves in our continued pursuit of operational excellence and unwavering commitment to the safety and security of our esteemed passengers.’
“We can confirm that the UK Civil Aviation Authority wrote to Air Peace, after their statutory Ramp Inspection on April 7, 2024, to request clarification on our use of the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) and some other concerns. We provided the necessary information, and the matter was resolved without any issues.
“It is therefore, wrong to say we do not have approval for our EFB. Air Peace received approval from the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), and all our Boeing 777 aircraft are certified to operate with EFBs.
