Air India co-pilot beats up captain inside cockpit

India is interesting.

I was just reading an article by a KLM 777 pilot saying when they get their clearance at Indian airports, all 3 pilots write down what they think the controller said and then compare notes before the pilot working the radios responds. This is because apparently if a crew has trouble understanding the Indian controllers English, it is common for them to take great offense, become angry, and then ignore the aircraft for 30-60 minutes before giving them "another chance".

just call "1-800-clearance" for tech support.

Not if it is manually initiated with "curry fart" noises interrupted every so often with "you have the power to end this."

...probably good I'm not an airline pilot.

Rented a house after an Indian tenant vacated. The house was still smelling of curry after the apartment folks supposedly steam cleaned the carpet and painted the walls.

Curry is good to eat not so much to smell. Used to be put up in a hotel run by an Indian family. They'd cook I their apartment attached to the office and breakfast area. Breakfast at the hotel was nick named Curry Loops.
 
I hope we are all this colorful in our statement(s) about all cultures and not being politically correct only when it fits. Somehow the culture gets thrown into the mix of a flight deck issue. Someone please enlighten me what a "curry fart" is because that one gets the hands down for originality.

That being said, I usually tend to laugh at most of the Indian jokes because...well most of them are true (like fluffy in the video - I can do a better accent than him tho :). In case you don't know, yep I'm an Abu but don't own a kwik-E-Mart...yet :)

A curry fart is the noxious cloud vented through the, uhh, aft nozzle after one consumes the appropriate amount of curry. The phenomenon is not type or engine specific, all makes and models are susceptible to the byproducts of the alternative fuel blend.
