Hey guys,

I gave a call on that number on their website. Its only for Indian nationals and they claim that they're the only one's allowed to do the recruitment for Indians. CAE does it only for EU nationals and not for Indians. The Indian biz is looked after by a pilot from 9W who claims to have lots of hours on the 737. As far as the job guarantee is concerned, there is a job confirmation and you sign the contract with Lion Air for 3 yrs. But the million dollar question is, do you want to prostitute yourself for this? 25L for a mere 2000$/month with an increment of 300$ every year??

Paying for your TR/SSTR is the standard set in the Indian industry now a days. But you must ensure that you get a decent salary with it. If not, please don't degrade the standards for others who are also in this industry and for the many to come.

Nick
