Sky Dancer,
Great job at exhibiting a very high level of restraint at flanker's comments. And thanks for showing courtesy in the face of ignorance and arrogance. We need more Ppruners to learn from this 'exchange'.
Keep it up SD...

Maybe the Govt may help?

Refer the following article in Indian Express

With mounting debt, Kingfisher knocks at govt’s door again - Indian Express

For all the employees sake it would be nice if KF pulls through

Flanker Pilot , or should I say "****** Pilot" , initially I was in doubt about your level of intelligence , now I'm convinced about your level of stupidity and ignorance.Before you select a fancy nickname for yourself , do a bit of research about it.If you read how I addressed you initially , I said SU 27 / 30 MKI. The NATO codename of "Flanker" was originally given to the SU 27 . The SU 30 / 33 are derivatives of the original SU 27 design are stilled called variations of the "Flanker" name in the NATO files. So to answer your question , I am very much awake and I do know all the aircrat the IAF have flown till date. And my suggestion to you is " Wake Up " and when you do wake your good friend VJM as well as I think he is still dreaming that the A 380s are on the way.Both of you need a reality check and hey that's why I'm trolling all over you buddy , I'm just helping you out.Good morning..

Skydancer : I think we have established that flankerpilot is nothing more than an armchair analyst, nothing to see here.

Meanwhile back on topic, kingfisher like most ailing airlines today suffers from over capacity and over expansion. With mallaya having bit more than he can chew(too many business ventures) it will need a miracle from the management get things sorted at KF.

Meanwhile talked to a friend of mine who is flying with Kingfisher, expect a huge exodus of experienced pilots(guys with 4000+ hours) from the ranks early next year headed to the middle east...cough..Emirates...cough.

Apparently some are still hopeful that at some point in the future they will be delivered.

http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-F...e1-769112.aspx

Kiran Rao Airbus (India) : Rao said the A380 order was still on. "A380 is still on as an order but we are not talking about delivering aircraft. Originally it was (to be delivered in) 2011. It will be later on."
