Do your fellow Captains in US eat with there hands or they used a fork?I am an Indian and very proud to be one and I can list countless valid reasons for that.U.S.A. is supposed to be a First world country and also the richest country in the world and the whole world got see the mess after Katrina,dead bodies floating in the streets,hungry and desperate people abondened in the streets. Hey I saw the same in India, and with huge amounts of people living and dying under the bridge in Mumbai, Pune where I was based, at Calcutta WORST!!! and Bangalore Dehli Jaipur, etc.... Whenever I have a layover in Los Angeles and take a walk from my hotel I can see the streets under the bridges which have been turned into virtual toilets. People in India used the streets the as toilets!!!!!!!!Airlines in India pay a whole lot better compared to most of the U.S.carriers,atleast FOs in India are not makin poverty level wages unlike here in U.S. Indian aviation has the second largest amount of losses in the world. And the salaries are tax free, 9000 USD!!! Ask around most expats are bailing out. And most Indian pilots where looking to get some experience to hit the road!!!! 5000 usd is what they where paying in KiNG.
where a great majority of Pilots are eligible for food stamps.Whenever I am back in India and I get to meet my friends who are flying there,I am embaressed to mention my first world wages. The last time I remember, the USA is a Democratic country like India, if you don't like your job, stop criticizing you poor way of living, and get out!!!!!Those of you who have never stepped out of your nests,go out and see the world,it is going to be a great experience.
I flew for Kingfisher for a year I have lived in India, Costa Rica, Peru, Jordan, and the US...India is great country, don't get me wrong, the US is simply great!!! There is no place like America.
Hey why don't you go there to Kingfisher or Indian Airlines, or Go Air?[/quote]
You are trying to lecture one of the greatest civilisations in the world.Eating with your hands does not make someone less civilised or using a fork does not make you more civilised.And I am not the only one who critices poverty level wages here in US,its a whole bunch of American pilots who do the same aswell as that is a fact,now where are they supposed to go???There is no place like home for you its US and for people like me who eat with their hands it is India.
I have already made a huge mistake by quitting my nice cushy job @ Singapore Airlines and this time when I decide to go to Kingfisher,Indian Airlines or Go Air I will take my time but thanks for giving me all those multiple choices as I was not AWARE of them.
Indian aviation is suffering losses due to rapid expansion and as any person with some common sense would know that its hard to generate profits when you are expanding like crazy.Expats are bailing out because they know they will be booted out by 2010.
USA is like my second motherland,I have a great amount of respect for it but at the same time it has its positives and negatives just like any other country.
