sucker born every minute....

indeed, very true. I saw a posting online - offering CPL for fixed wing at about 16 -18000 US$ (about 800,000 Indian RS) in US, UK and Phillipines. Seemed very tempting and sent an email to the guy only to get a reply that shocked me. Seen as the airlines need 200 hours, the guy blatantly said that only 60 hours of actual flying would be needed and the rest would be faked to get a DGCA license. Wonder how many people got roped in to that scheme. Also wonder how many of the F/O's have fake hours logged!!

Helicopter CFI's will be in big demand for a few months...
