It was reported in the media yesterday (9 Feb) that Indian pilots from Vistara would be flying for SIA and Scoot. The report said that Vistara is working with SIA and Scoot to provide around 20 of its pilots to help fly SIA and Scoot’s planes.
Up to 12 qualified Vistara pilots have been training with SIA since last month, SIA revealed.
“These pilots, who have already been flying with Vistara for a number of years, had to undergo our vigorous selection process and meet all Singapore regulatory licensing requirements,” said the SIA spokesperson. “They will be with SIA for about 12 months before returning to Vistara to pioneer the 787 operations.”
Scoot also said that it was working with the Indian airline to “provide opportunities for up to 12 of Vistara’s flight crew to gain operational experience on Scoot’s Boeing 787 fleet”.

Of course, an FTA was signed with India, so this is what you should expect.

Those pilots need to be certified yo fly b787 from a320 currently. That means cost are will be flying from india to UK, US and Canada us8ng brand new b787. Hence reason why they need $ billions in new investments.

Sinkies weren't flying SIA planes; given to Malaysians. Only after Harry kicked the m&d Chinks out, he allowed some loser ex RSAF pilots to fly SIA planes, but not all.

This is one policy which even local sq pilots don't understand.

Years back sinkies were only allowed to apply for cadet pilot after 25yo to protect RSAF recruitment whereas there wasn't such restriction on Malaysian and other foreigners.

A local pilot took the matter to FB. Fearing another Ryan Goh incident, he was summoned to PMO to explain to TCH. The restriction was eventually lifted after many years. How many sinkies were unfairly treated due to this decades old restriction.
