Business Aircraft Operators' Association ( BAOA ) president Rohit Kapur said that YA number was a requirement unique to India. "Doing away with YA will ensure operators can fly overseas without delay and this will also free up DGCA resources. "Last April, VistaJet - one of the world's largest private jet charter companies - had said getting clearances on a weekend to even overfly India was tough. The company sought DGCA nod to overfly India on the preceding Friday. Now with the DGCA making it easier for India-registered business jets to fly out, flying in by foreign jets is next on their agenda.
