Guadeloupe's Air Antilles resumes commercial flight ops

Air Antilles has resumed commercial flight operations after a follow-up audit by the French civil aviation authority showed the carrier's safety and maintenance oversight to be in compliance with regulations. As previously reported, the Guadeloupe-based operator was grounded on August 24, after the French civil aviation safety regulator suspended its CAMO (continuing airworthiness management organisation) certificate citing lapses in several areas of oversight and record keeping. Air Antilles was then given the opportunity to explain itself to the regulatory body pending more severe sanctions.<br/>
