<h1>Aviation regulator approves six-month extension for airline to continue damp leasing two widebodies, overturning prior final limit</h1> A national aviation regulator granted a six-month extension permitting an Indian airline to continue damp leasing two widebody aircraft from a Turkish airline subject to unspecified conditions, overturning an earlier three-month final extension that had barred further renewals. The extension permits continued direct service on international routes until the new expiry; regulatory specifics were not disclosed and inquiries to the regulator and the carrier remained unanswered. The decision follows prior political tensions between the two countries that had informed earlier regulatory caution.
