I think Mr 800 needs to quantify his statements with some hard facts and not rumours. As for the cheap ex-pat statement...well i am pretty sure no ex-pat would regard himself to be cheap! Good value yes! I also don't think anyone with an ounce of professionalism would divulge the type of information you have regurgitated in this forum...if they have then all i can say is hopefully they don't work for Bjets any more.
The hiring of ex-pats was for the very simple reason of decent training and reliability. Unfortunately it seems that people are more concerned with their own success and self importance and don't want to admit that they need that level of trained personnel.
Like Flinty said...it will end up with some serious incidents. Maybe a couple of these might make someone in the DGCA wake up and then perhaps maybe something might move forward. They have to realise though, that progress is only achievable when you are willing to admit you need help.
Saving face and pride will ultimately prevent this!
