Air India has received approval from India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation to use Electronic Technical Logbooks as the primary technical document for its entire Boeing 787 fleet, with parallel implementation authorized for the Boeing 777 fleet. This regulatory milestone marks one of the first global completions of a fleet-wide ETL rollout across a widebody Boeing 787 operation, replacing paper records with a real-time digital platform under Tata Group’s digital transformation programme. The shift accelerates maintenance coordination, speeds defect reporting, and improves aircraft dispatch reliability by eliminating manual logs. The approval enables fleet-wide digital maintenance across both widebody types, though the ETL vendor and exact 777 full-implementation timeline remain unspecified.
