It's amazing that the same story in his hometown was covered by the media as a positive inspirational topic while the same issue can be viewed with such negativity by the Indian media.

It's time the Indian media took their blinders off and begin reporting relevant and accurate articles about aviation. All these clippings of high drama go arounds, over exaggeration of pilot shortages and and hell will break lose expat hiring is not helping or portraying the industry in a favourable light. Someone needs to put a stop to this ignorance and xenophobia.

They need to realise that aviation is now integral part of India'a economy and not a rich man's toy. Such irresponsibility only exposes the immaturity and lack of knowledge of journalists. Maybe a defamation lawsuit will shake this journo off his little non accountable pedestal.

I wish NG Expat all the best and hope to fly with you soon and personally discuss this journalistic hissy fit.
