interesting points put here..The big old saying works in DGCA "Na Baap Bada Na Bhaiya Sabse Bada $$ Rupaiyaa $$" well me nd my frnd submitted the docs on the same day, he payed a big sum to one of the dgca guys discussed here.. the result.. he was asked to pik his license in 11 days.. and i am still shouting on the top of my voice but DGCA is no ears .. it has been more than 50 days now, no objections, no shortfalls!! the only problem that i have is that i din fill their pockets!!!!
