OK so heres the low down on Indigo. I am part of it. D.O. is very much there and has already started showing a lot of colours. Could anyone here update on his previous "QUALIFICATIONS" since he seems to be a person who remains in news like Warwick Brady who came to Air Deccan and brought it to almost shut down. The news is that, Air deccan was left with just three days of operating expenses before Viyay Mallya of Kingfisher bailed them out and the first action was to ask Warwick to quit gracefully, which, he did not deserve. Please update on D.O. too...
Indigo is low cost airline which is vehemently trying not to recruit indian pilots. Infact, nearly 50% cockpit crew is expat. I have nothing against expats who are campaigners of free market. How about opening EU/UK/North America markets for "deserving" expat pilots too? Let there be openeness in YOUR country too rather than expecting it only from India. There are enough and more qualified pilots here who have been on 320 for years now.
You will not have a stable roster here. Infact, you will get your flight a day prior or even the same day. There are a lot of layovers, which, in expat context is good for people who are staying without families - you get to see more places here. anyway you are all on a paid holiday here. so enjoy!!!
The payments and other HR issues are very well looked after. Though same cannot be said about operations and training, specially after arrival of D.O., devide and rule policy has started there.
All the best. if you have any specific queries, post them here for answers.
