fying tiger, your not discovering anything new mate! geez!
in any country of the planet, china, india, chile, panama, thailand, italy, england, you name it...............we the expat pilot's are an "Undiserable Need", some coworkers can treat you well, just because of your seating position in the flight deck, other wont even look at you no matter what.
of course they would love to get ride of you and me, they pay us more than their locals, also where taking the seat of a posible or potential f/o to be in that seat of command, if thats the case, if not your taking away the dream of guys in any aviation school by not finding a job in their homeland cause its already filled by us, and is not our fault, its simply how things are, unfare for some and oportunity to others
and to be honest with you, India is the place that receives foreigners more nicelly than any other i've been to, they do socialize with you, not just when your on duty with them, theyre very open minded they enjoy the time with us, and back....................try that in china!
