India - Fly med kjente vestlige selskaper fremfor Air Inida - Curt Lewis

Jeg har mange ganger skrevet om situasjonen i India; falske sertifikater, slitne flygere, og ikke minst elendige Flight Safety systemer. Jeg anbefaler deg derfor å unngå Air India spesielt. (Red.)

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India's air safety watchdog on Monday suspended the license of a senior Air India pilot, who is also the carrier's director of operations, for three years, a day after he failed two breathalyzer tests before a flight to London from New Delhi.

This is the second time Arvind Kathpalia has been in trouble over alcohol tests. He was suspended for three months in 2017 for allegedly refusing to take breathalyzer tests.
