EU pilots,thinking to build jet hours in India?
well ,guess what, it is over...not expats in india after june 08.
and that 's a good and bad new.
good new to stop this pay to work scam,
and bad new for the good ailines who were employing and paying their expat pilots.
so if you are thinking to pay aTRTO, then pay a company in India to log some 200-300 hours on the bus or the boeing, forget it cuz you wont receive a work permit there...

flinstone,thanks for your reply.Do you know how long it takes to convert your licence?Ive already seen in dgac page the written exams,morse and rtr one has to do,but dont know time it can take...ive also been said that there is a lot of corruption,so ppl can pay por conversion as well?
Ive not been in india since 1998 and dont know how´s that now,one friend of another friend is going now also to india for building hours in airline,he will pay himself type rating and has about 200 hours,so what n whom to believe?
