Hopefully Hiring Pilots Who Can
Aviation is looking alive in India, according to Bombay’s * Economic Times.
The corporation running Air India, National Aviation Company of India (NACIL), is hiring experienced Boeing 737 commanders, and for its Budget division (Air India Express), they are looking for experienced and inexperienced co-pilots.
In this depressed global economy, jobs are always good news. Let’s hope that NACIL’s hiring practices involve some efforts at due diligence (hiring with a certain standard of care) and result in aviation excellence, even in its budget airlines Air India Express.
Hiring is good news…as long as cutting cost in tough times does not mean cutting safety. Even travelers with modest incomes deserve to make it to their destination in one piece.
