Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed has rental properties in India, Dubai in wife’s name NEW DELHI: Air India on Friday hiked pilot salaries by 8% to 15%, with commanders getting the biggest hikes and then the same tapering with rank. Going ahead, first officers or co-pilots will primarily get command upgrade (become captains) in AI Express (which has only single aisles) and then move to AI (which has wide body aircraft too that have higher pay) for a “strong foundation for progression within the group”. The group has tried to do multiple things — make AI Express more attractive for pilots through better pay and address shortage there mainly on the Boeing 737 fleet; check resignations and retain cockpit crew.AI pilots have for years been facing a 40 hour guaranteed pay — meaning they will get minimum for these many hours irrespective of actual flying and flying more will for more pay — while IndiGo has fixed pay for 70 hours. This has been a cause of heartburn among pilots. Under the revised framework while AI will continue to provide guaranteed pay for 40 flying hours but has enhanced flying allowance rates. Flying allowance rates beyond 40 hours have also been increased, aligning compensation with industry benchmarks while rewarding productivity.Now AI is restoring international flights that were slashed post the West Asia crisis and will return to Jan-Feb level by next month. The constraint of Pakistan airspace closure remains for Indian carriers and the longer routes they have to take for flying to and from the west — unlike direct routes taken by foreign carriers — means higher flying time and greater pilot requirement.Now a senior commander flying for about 55 hours in a month will get Rs 8.3 lakh, up from Rs 7.5 lakh at present. And a first officer doing so will get Rs 3.3 lakh, up from just over Rs 3 lakh as of now.While privilege leave has been reduced from 30 to 24, the airline will not be counting mandatory weekly off time pilots get as per regulatory requirement and the new leave structure accounts does not factor that which comes across as a cut in leave, said people in the know. IndiGo may relook at its leave policy too for pilots.Since Tata Group took over AI and AI Express in Jan 2022, the Maharaja has lost over Rs 55,000 crore due to multiple factors. The pilot pay hike announced Friday indicates it is looking at the future and preparing for growth with hundreds of aircraft on order without being bogged down by the tumultuous recent past.“New career pathways, enhanced compensation and benefits, and improved quality-of-life initiatives support Air India Group’s next phase of expansion. At the heart of these initiatives is a clear, structured and transparent career pathway that provides faster command opportunities, long-term progression and access to one of the most significant widebody growth programmes in global aviation,” said an official.Since 2022, AI Group has grown from around 100 aircraft to nearly 300 aircraft and has placed orders for 600 new aircraft, including 80 wide body aircraft. Tatas are investing in capability building, including the establishment of a modern aviation academy in Gurugram with Airbus and Boeing full-flight simulators, and a new flying training school in Amravati, Maharashtra.“As AI group expands, it is focused on developing and retaining internal talent through a structured progression model across Air India Express and Air India. Pilots across Air India and Air India Express will operate under a common seniority framework, creating an integrated and transparent pathway for career progression across the group. This framework provides greater visibility into future opportunities while ensuring a consistent and structured approach to advancement,” said teh official.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesUnder the new framework, AI Express will serve as “the primary pathway for pilots seeking command upgrades. This approach is designed to accelerate command opportunities, enable pilots to build command experience earlier in their careers, and create a strong foundation for progression within the Group.”Following command experience at AI Express, pilots will have the opportunity to progress to Air India and subsequently pursue widebody flying and command opportunities. “With 80 additional widebody aircraft on order and scheduled for induction over the coming years, Air India offers pilots a long-term pathway that is unique in the Indian market,” the official said. An additional incentive is being offered to pilots who sign up to support the growing Boeing 737 fleet in Air India Express under which they will receive a fleet allowance.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

Two surviving plants helped produce 250 seedlings now heading back to the reserve | World News BENGALURU: HAL Airport in Bengaluru has become the first airport in India to operationalise a satellite-guided helicopter approach procedure, a move expected to improve safety, reduce flight times and enable more reliable all-weather operations.“The Required Navigation Performance Category H (RNP CAT H) approach, developed by the Airports Authority of India (AAI), is designed exclusively for helicopters. The procedure was validated through flight trials by HAL test pilots and approved by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA),” HAL said Friday.The new approach, it added, enables helicopters to fly highly accurate, optimised flight paths using satellite-based navigation, allowing them to safely negotiate terrain and urban obstacles while operating in adverse weather conditions.According to HAL, the procedure cuts the approach time to HAL Airport from around 12 minutes to about 4 minutes.“The operationalisation of India’s first RNP CAT H helicopter approach is a significant milestone for the country’s aviation ecosystem. This capability enhances the safety, efficiency and accessibility of helicopter operations and establishes a benchmark for similar procedures to be implemented at airports across the country,” HAL chairman and managing director Ravi K said.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesBesides improving safety, the system is expected to enhance operational efficiency and airspace capacity by allowing smoother integration of helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft movements. It also reduces the noise footprint over urban areas by enabling more precise flight paths.The faster approach routes are expected to benefit time-critical operations such as air ambulance services and search-and-rescue missions. HAL Airport, which handles nearly 50 helicopter movements every day, is one of the country’s busiest helicopter hubs. The introduction of the RNP CAT H procedure addresses a long-standing gap in India’s aviation infrastructure and could serve as a model for similar helicopter navigation procedures at other airports.Get the latest India News and Live updates.

(File photo) NEW DELHI: “You are a member of Parliament. Having taken the plunge into politics, you fear eggs? When our freedom fighters have taken bullets on their chest?” the Supreme Court remarked on Friday while refusing to entertain Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra’s plea against a Calcutta high court order directing her to appear before police in connection with a hate speech case.A bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and Sheel Nagu said it was not inclined to interfere with the high court’s direction requiring the Krishnanagar MP to join the investigation.Senior advocate Gopal Sankaranarayanan, appearing for Moitra, argued that she should be allowed to appear before the investigating officer virtually as she was entitled to do so under the law.”The requirement as per the police’s notice is to be at the police station in my own constituency. Last time I went there two things happened. First there were threats that eggs will be thrown etc. and second time eggs were actually thrown,” he submitted.The bench, however, was unconvinced and orally observed, “You are a member of Parliament. Having taken the plunge into politics, you fear eggs?”When our freedom fighters have taken bullets on their chest? These are applications that should not come before this court at all,” it added, according to news agency PTI.With the bench indicating that it would not grant relief, Moitra’s counsel withdrew the petition, following which it was dismissed as withdrawn.The plea challenged a July 21 order of the Calcutta High Court, which had granted Moitra interim protection from coercive action until October 5 in the hate speech case, while directing her to cooperate with the investigation.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesThe MP has claimed the case registered at Hogolberia Police Station in Nadia district is based on fabricated allegations.

BENGALURU: Space start-up Astrobase Space Technologies Friday unveiled what it described as India’s first privately built “800kN Full-Flow Staged Combustion (FFSC) liquid oxygen-methane rocket engine, named ‘Everest’”, as it seeks to develop reusable launch systems and expand domestic launch infrastructure.The Bengaluru-based company said the engine is designed for medium-lift launch vehicles and forms part of its long-term plan to build an integrated launch ecosystem covering propulsion, manufacturing, testing and launch operations. The next major milestone for the programme will be a full-engine hot-fire test, followed by vehicle integration and orbital launch development.According to the company: “Everest uses the full-flow staged combustion cycle, one of the most complex rocket engine architectures, and is powered by liquid oxygen and methane. The engine has been designed for reusability and offers 800 kN of thrust, a specific impulse of around 340 seconds and a throttle range of 50% to 110%.”The company said it plans to manufacture up to 50 engines annually once its facilities are fully operational, with the capability to hot-fire about one engine every week. It aims to test around 20 engines before attempting its first orbital mission.Its first phase of expansion is intended to support about 100 tonnes of annual launch capacity, with a longer-term goal of exceeding 1,000 tonnes through a higher launch cadence. It also said it was “working towards a launch-on-demand capability that could enable a dedicated mission within 15 days of an urgent national requirement. These targets are yet to be demonstrated”.Astrobase co-founder Neeraj Khandelwal said the engine was intended to establish an industrial capability rather than serve only as a technology demonstrator, adding that India would require indigenous high-thrust propulsion systems as satellite launches increase globally.Join conversationView All Comments →Share your thoughts in the commentsInsightfulAgreeDisagreeSkepticalConcerningPromisingWorth ReadingBig DevelopmentPost CommentBe respectful · TOI community guidelinesIN-SPACe director (technical) Rajeev Jyoti said Astrobase was among the recipients of IN-SPACe’s Technology Adoption Fund, which is supporting development of the 800 kN engine.
