Kingfisher Airlines’ pilots have threatened to approach the DGCA, if the management did not meet the commitment of paying May’s salary by November 30, 2012. Pilots have written to the airline’s chief executive regarding the same, as airline has not paid the salary to most of its 4,000 employees since May.
Debt-strapped airline has temporarily lost its flying licence after its pilots and engineers went on strike demanding payment of dues. However, it managed to convince the employees to end their agitation by assuring them that their three-month dues (March to May) will be remitted in three installments by Diwali. Subsequently, the agitation was called off on October 24.
