It will indeed.

Interested in the suggestion that a medical costs a significant part of a week or even month's salary.

The quote for my medical in Los Angeles was an hour's pay for the average US airline pilot operating a jet. $120, that's 5,400 INR. That's right, one hour of pay - for a senior guy with a legacy carrier it would actually amount to 30 or 40 minutes of pay.

It seems to me that professional aviation is still relatively new for many in Indian society and you accept getting ripped off from every corner of the business.
