Скачать или смотреть Indian Aviation Crisis | Delhi IGI Tech Glitch & GPS Spoofing

What happened at Delhi’s IGI on 6 Nov 2025 — a core ATC message system (AMSS) failed, pilots reported GNSS/GPS spoofing, and hundreds of flights were disrupted. This explainer breaks down what failed, why it matters, who’s investigating, and the fixes India must make next.

On 6 November 2025 the Automatic Message Switching System (AMSS) at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport experienced a technical fault that disrupted the flow of flight plans, NOTAMs and other aeronautical messages — forcing controllers to revert to manual procedures and causing widespread delays and cancellations. The Airports Authority of India confirmed the technical issue and later restored the system. Press Information Bureau+1
At the same time pilots reported instances of GNSS/GPS spoofing near Delhi, prompting a national security probe and fresh DGCA guidance requiring crews and ATC to report anomalies within 10 minutes so agencies can rapidly trace sources. mint+1
In this video we explain:
• What AMSS does and why AMSS/AMHS matter for high-density airports.
• The technical root causes reported (server sync/failover + corrupted queues, legacy software & limited local expertise).
• Operational impact: hundreds of flights affected and national knock-on delays. The Times of India
• The GNSS spoofing threat, how aircraft mitigate it (inertial systems, manual cross-checks), and industry proposals for anti-spoofing avionics.
• Concrete short- and long-term policy fixes India needs: replace legacy systems, add automated failover, deploy anti-spoofing tech and build rapid recovery teams.
If you work in aviation, travel frequently, or care about national critical infrastructure — this one affects capacity, safety and national resilience.
