Dhruvs to be airborne next week
India's 46 Dhruv helicopters are expected to be back flying next week. This comes after the manufacturer Hindustan Aeronautics Limited conducted stringent stress checks on the tail rotor blades.
A tail rotor defect caused a newly built Dhruv to crash last November. The fault was traced to the composite imported from Switzerland to produce the tail rotor blades.
