Actually Froggy, your whole post is probably
not lies. If they opened a Mumbai or Dehli base, these guys probably
would get a command in 5 years. CX would avoid paying BPP as the the slots would be offered but I doubt many non Indian natives would take them. I don't know about $10k, but the 24k for CN's would get you a pretty good place over there. And there's always a curry on board!
