The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has raised the alarm over increasing cases of aviation fuel contamination and poor adherence to standards by players in the sector. NCAA raised the alarm on Thursday during an aviation stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja. It said that Max Air’s Boeing 737-300 aircraft failed to take off from the Yola Airport in Adamawa State on July 7 because its main tank was filled with water.
The lawmakers noted that there have been many flight accidents in history caused by fuel contamination resulting in abnormal operation of aircraft engines and water as a major contaminant.
