when is the delivery of these 17 planes expected? and i wouldn't worry about the kf pilots, like i said earlier it makes more sense for them to stick to 320 carriers like indigo

just saw on the news that the government might permit the fdi in our carriers from 26% to 49%, i wonder if this might improve our situation?

btw talking about TR costs, i've forgotten to mention this before - last year i received a mail from higher power aviation dallas, upon my inquiry about their 737ng program, and they told me the cost was 17250 USD (8,62,500 INR) for the course + 2400 USD (1,20,000 INR) for jet transition = 19650 USD (9,82,500 INR)

my million dollar question is this: even if their costs have increased over the last one year, why is the jet process for the same a/c 20 lacs now? it's a staggering difference, can anybody please answer this for me? isn't that too much for a type rating?
