Like in every profession you will find people being over the limit doing their job, be it pilots , lorry drivers or doctors .
The problem is, as long as the punishment is not hard enough it will not get better, for sure.
What's the point of checking every domestic flight if you don't punish the offenders ????
It's all well and good , but if the company doesn't dismess their drunk pilots, the DGCA for sure should take their licence, if they have a valid one in the first place !
on the other hand the airlines are short of pilot's and DGCA is stopping Expats to come in and fly, so what to do as to let offenders go, espically if they are friends of friends.....!
by the way, that's not me saying, it's the indian media !
have a save and dry flight
