Very patriotic comments but highly unprofessional!
It is naïve to think that all pilots are able to perform to standard, as evinced by the captain in question.

Every Captain must be able to demonstrate handling the Aeroplane to its limits on the Simulator and that includes Xwinds/windshear/CATII etc
The captain has severe issues ranging from decision skills, situational awareness, piloting skills, and ignorant of aircraft limitations, past poor performance during training. The captain involved in this incident is a prime example of a weak link being pushed through the system do to nepotism, good old by network, or corruption.


Again, this problem is prevalent in carriers beyond the Indian Borders.
