I doubt it will happen... it seems this is a means to show that the DGCA is trying to safeguard the interests of its ever burgeoning ranks of new unemployed CPL holders.
Methinks TD is trying to make it an issue. But remember "flying hours only does not a good pilot make". Why not ask for age and IQ level too? Or maybe marks in the previous refresher?
While I am no great fan of DGCA it doesnt solve the problem by adopting knee jerk reactions.
