Gulf carriers have become a magnet for Indian-trained commanders, while domestic rivals poach from one another in a cycle of disruption and retaliation. India recently broke the silence, taking the fight to the ICAO and urging the creation of a global code of conduct to curb aggressive last-minute hiring.

Manas Kulkarni, who grows bananas, cotton, pulses, etc., in Maharashtra's Jalgaon district, flew on his 50th FLY91 flight from Jalgaon to Pune on July 2.
