Interesting is the fact that from all the copilots who flew with me, not one ever had an interview with the company. Let alone a technical interview.
They all landed straight-in the copilot seat only because of their father’s relation with the company.
One of them did not even know how to buckle his seat belt (Dad was his DGCA instructor/examiner); another one had a CPL ME/IR but never took or passed any ME or IR check-ride, not even an instrument written test. Not to mention another one who continually called his buddies during duty time (presumably to brag about the fact he was on the flight line and, flying!) and even repeatedly texted sms during flight.
Company is not worried: they are “fresh”, and they will learn was I told.
All con artists, or are they? Not smart enough, “Dad” is!
Ah, just read in the news about the daughter of the DGCA Air Safety director. Congrats, indeed.
Incredible India!
