[tatsit]

Ok.. to SIA, here's the catch, I'm no longer taking SIA unless it is to redeem flights

 

[nonameless]

During emergency, captain cannot clear give instructions also jialat ...

 

[fulaien]

For any airline, safety should be paramount.

For that, I think I will boycott sia and scoot from now on until this arrangement stops.

 

[kuma-mon]

No sinkies wanna do pilot jobs?

 

[Full_Cream_Milk]

This equity relationship allows SIA to share operational knowledge and support,

What “operational knowledge” can india share?

Why not partner with France, Japan, Korea, Canada, NZ, Sweden, etc etc?

 

[Jackal84]

What's with our govt's obsession with India???

wtf are we propping up Air India?

 

[PaprikaSG]

Surprisingly Air India picked SIA instead of Qantas where the later got more Indians migrate to Australia and the demand is > SG.

 

[yokine3a]

Will tell my friends siblings to avoid taking scoot.

 

[Medicated Oil]

Cannot train more pilots ?

Dec 2024 News on Air India:

Air India Pilots Attempt Takeoff from Taxiway at Goa Airport​

In a serious aviation safety incident, Air India (AI) pilots attempted to takeoff from a taxiway at Goa’s Manohar International Airport (GOX) on December 5, 2024. The swift action of the Air Traffic Controller (ATC) and the flight crew averted what could have been a disastrous event.

The incident involved Air India flight AI2592, which was scheduled to fly from Goa (GOX) to Hyderabad (HYD). The aircraft, an Airbus A320neo, registered as VT-EXT, was 7.7 years old and began its takeoff roll at 3:47 AM UTC. However, instead of using the designated Runway 10/28, the pilots mistakenly initiated the takeoff from Taxiway A.

The ATC promptly alerted the flight crew when the plane was already moving at over 100 knots and nearing the point of liftoff. Upon receiving the warning, the pilots quickly rejected the takeoff, bringing the aircraft to a halt at A2 point on the taxiway. Fortunately, no injuries were reported among the passengers or crew onboard.
