Cockpit fraud: fears grow over India's fake pilots

NEW DELHI - INDIA'S fake pilot scandal began unravelling when a female captain landed her packed airliner on the nose instead of the rear wheels as she touched down in the holiday hotspot of Goa.

Parminder Kaur Gulati, flying for the fastest-growing airline in the booming Indian sector, IndiGo, was investigated for the dangerous error in January and was found with falsified qualifications. She has since been fired and arrested.

The case set alarm bells ringing for passengers, anxious about the idea of a semi-trained fraud being responsible for their lives, and for airline bosses, who have been hiring crew at a furious pace in recent years.

Since the discovery of Gulati, at least five other pilots have been arrested working for low-cost flier SpiceJet, national flag carrier Air India and smaller regional airline MDLR.

India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), which is responsible for pilot examinations and granting licences, has announced it will look into the credentials of 4,000 commercial airline pilots.

More arrests are expected. -- AFP

“It’s as bad as doctors or surgeons who fake their certificates and put people’s lives at risk,” says Baijayant Panda, a member of parliament from the eastern state of Orissa.

“But it’s not limited to aviation in India. In many fields, you have a lot of fakery going on,” the lawmaker, seen as part of a new breed of young Indian politicians, told a debate show on NDTV television last week.
Unquote.

Imagine unknowingly putting your life in d hands of such fakes.

Problem is work experience can be faked as well. Even easier then paper qualifications.

if work experience is faked, it will be obvious during probation period and will not be confirmed in the position / appointment

Not always easy to spot and monitor.
Heard of d case of an Indian-trained surgeon known as \"Dr. Death\"
who fled Australia in 2007 after reports surfaced about incompetency?
It was alleged dat at least 80 patients may hv died at his hands between 2003 to 2005 from blotched surgeries.

SG too has opened its doors to Indian-trained doctors.[/quote]and recently, to those doctors from China also
BTW, out of 8820 doctors in Singapore, 26% are foreigners that means
1 out of 4 doctors are not locals :shock:

if we move away from being overly obsessed with paper qualifications, and to hire based on proven ability to do a task and track record in work experience, we would be able to get rid of quite a lot of fake qualifications.
