Chennai: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is wooing experienced pilots to become flight safety inspectors by offering them a hefty pay package.
Their job will be to check airworthiness of planes and handle air-crew certification. The department will hire 58 flight safety officials, including nine senior flight operations inspectors (aeroplane), with monthly emoluments nearly ten times more than what was offered by a leading domestic airline last year.
The recruitment drive comes a week after the US Federal Aviation Administration downgraded India’s flight safety standards.
The DGCA will hire nine senior flight operations inspectors (aeroplane) by paying a monthly salary ranging Rs 5.57 lakh to 6.77 lakh and 40 flight operations inspectors (aeroplane) at Rs 3.70 lakh to 4.50 lakh. They should have flown not less than 6,000 hours and not less than 5,000 hours as pilot-in-command on air transport aircraft.
