@manishasinghal I was inspired to invest in crypto seeing your posts. Flying wasn't helping financially anyway. 🤣🤣

@priapranay Hahah… what a decoding of the post…

[Capt.Vijay H @videsipilot]

20 weeks bonus.
Public gratitude from the CEO.
Respect for employees who stood strong in difficult times.
That’s world-class aviation leadership.
Meanwhile, many in Indian aviation still wait for basic appreciation after years of sacrifices, salary cuts and zero recognition.

The board of @airindia gets into a huddle to manage mounting losses and select a new CEO. Sources say the airline projected losses in FY26 stand at ₹ 22,000 Cr. @madeehamedia reports

3 states. 3 shocks. One message.

BJP in West Bengal.
TVK in Tamil Nadu.
UDF in Kerala.

Different ideologies, same verdict: perform or perish.
No stronghold is permanent anymore.

@narendramodi Expected, yet still surprising win for @BJP4India .

Now please focus on what truly matters—Kolkata needs growth, jobs, and real development. As the gateway to the East, it’s time the city (and its airport) finally sees the expansion it has long awaited.

Pilot reality. Not everything is glamorous anymore.
2 pilots dead in 1 week.
Behind the uniform—pressure, uncertainty, and a system that isn’t keeping up.
This needs attention.

Breaks my heart… he was in my batch when I joined AirAsia India.
It’s been years since I last met him, but I still can’t believe this. Doesn’t feel real.
Hardworking guy. Truly passionate about flying.
Strength to his family. Gone too soon. ✈️💔

ALPA India deeply mourns the passing of our esteemed member,
Capt. Tarundeep Singh

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues.
His presence in the aviation fraternity will always be remembered with respect and gratitude.

[Capt.Vijay H @videsipilot]

@Lively_Debate I doubt anything collective is possible here.

[Capt.Vijay H @videsipilot]

Unbelievable—two pilots gone in a week. No speculation, but something isn’t right. We need to take pilot mental & physical health seriously. Pressure is at an all-time high.

Another Akasa Captain died today after a heart attack during ground school in Bengaluru. He was 43 years old. Name being withheld to protect privacy. The deaths underscore deeper lifestyle challenges for aviators.

[Griffin @6ESinger157593]

Beyond the glamour, stereotypes, and superficial perceptions through which the Indian public, media, govt babus, beancounters and self-styled aviation “experts” often view airline pilots, here is a glimpse into what the profession truly demands—a real simulator training profile featuring two seasoned pilots.

This is what men and women in uniform train relentlessly for, across airlines worldwide. Their training goes far beyond acquiring knowledge and technical skill; it is about mastering the ability to apply that knowledge under pressure, in real-world situations, to protect and save hundreds of lives.

Watch this, and think twice before undermining the value, professionalism, and responsibility carried by the pilots who fly you safely to your destination.

Please don’t try this in India.
Someone will attempt single-engine cruise and engines-off descent for ‘efficiency’ 😅
Jokes apart—treat pilots well. They’re your biggest fuel-saving asset.

British Airways is offering pilots a financial incentive to cut their aircraft’s fuel consumption, highlighting how carriers are trying to reduce one of their biggest expenses at a time of soaring oil prices and stricter climate regulations https://t.co/lLZ668hJ05

[Capt.Vijay H @videsipilot]

@manishasinghal Plot twist. Now I just want to know the strategy behind this strategy 😄
