expat pilots in India

As a short time in country Pilot, from what I observed in the DGCA office in Delhi on Friday, probably any Friday, the stream of expat pilots is not decreasing, pilots from all over the place, high time, experienced crew are being hired to fill the need for just that, high time , experienced crew. Talk to a captain who has a 200 hour co-pilot, and that will answer your questions about the need for these pilots beyond 2010.
As well stated by KK, two years does not make, or offer the type of experience needed to fly in a demanding aviation environement, be it airline or corporate.
