Refusing to disturb the ongoing training of Air India pilots on advanced Boeing 777 to be used in international flights, the Delhi High Court today stayed further training of more pilots till implementation of Justice Dharmadhikari panel recommendations on the issue. Mr.Justice Suresh Kait however said, those who have already taken the training on advance aircraft shall be subject to the outcome of the instant petition.

The high court's order came on a plea by erstwhile Indian Airlines pilots, for a stay on management’s decision to train only erstwhile Air India pilots on the ground that they have been selected arbitrarily.
