AI pilots question govt move to cut salary for flight delay

Air India pilots have questioned the government's move to penalise airline's employees for any flight delay by way of cutting salary and said it will create an "unsafe" environment in the carrier.

"This futile exercise is going to be detrimental to flight safety as employees directly involved with the departure of a flight will try to cut corners in the safety practices in order to avoid delays," said Indian Commercial Pilots Association in a letter to the management.
