Confidential and off the record? Well what ever we tell you, you will twist and make more exciting to sell the story like all journalists.
What you need to know about LNI well...
They have more money than sense.
Lots of corruption
The reason why they believe theyre blacklisted is because they don't have Airbus (hense the huge order).
It's a man boy airline, the captain is always right. (culture thing)
Biggest P2f operator known to man.
Has a huge influx of Indian students, who are under investigation from Lion air and DGCA due to false hours and/or licenses.
Cant take critism to well and its always somebody else's fault.
The list goes on!
Without disrespecting anyone, but the Far East culture and Aviation doesn't mix to well. Usually due to a break down of CRM or 'don't fix it unless its broken' mentality.
