I would think it would make sense to offer up contracts similar to the original LOA to NJI for the India operation- sign on for 2 or 3 years as a part of their operation and have full retreat rights back to NJA along with no loss of seniority while gone. They will definitely need foreign pilots for many years as they probably will start an ab-initio program like NJE to get a local pipeline running and that will take some time. I hope whichever union representing us in the near future can negotiate something like that. As long as they offer up good pay, housing, and help for acclimation I'd probably be willing to do two or three years over there to experience new things and save up faster for retirement.
