Expat Pilots
Once again bad news for aspiring pilots, the ministry of civil aviation is all set to give the extension to expat pilots beyond July 31,2011.
Airlines told if this thing won’t happen half of their fleet will come to a hault leading to a major loss. This thing has been in a issue since a long time but the final decision on this matter has not yet taken by Aviation Minister Prafull Patel.
This is a serious issue for the Indian Aviation as almost 4,500 are unemployed pilots of India are sitting at their home despite spend more than 25 Lakhs for their training and expat pilots hammpers the growth of Indian Pilots.
