Whatever has been written above, it shows that Srilankan has lost 1/3 of its fleet. However, there can be no sympathy for the dead LTTE cadre. But the civilian who are killed by the SLAF and damaged most of the a/c. Should we say to the SLAF thaT A GOOD JOB DONE.
Met a friend, ex-Srilankan, as per him all the Phillipino Pilots have been fired and there were some Indians, who have been asked to proceed on leave. Later on I also heard that Srilankan is leasing out its Pilots to some Taiwanese company which in turn will be further sending them to Vietnam for flying on wet lease basis. No idea what is actually happenning there. But it was really sad to know that so many lives are lost, Srilankan airlines' back is totally broken after the incident. Overall what it shows is that security arrangements at The Katunayake International Airport was far from
satisfactory
