Dear Friends, - The present Indian Helicopter Industry has around 63 Non Scheduled Operators , 31 Private Operators and 18 Operators from Govt / PSUs. - ⁠The helicopter industry is showing unprecedented growth and the coming years are filled with hope, growth and excitement. - ⁠The helicopter is a unique machine that touches the lives of all citizens, not just people in the industry. From joyrides to medical evacuations and from religious tourism to elections, it can bring joy to all. - ⁠It is time that the efforts, challenges and stories of the helicopter industry are known across the country.We all must update ourselves about the Indian Civil Helicopter Industry. - ⁠”Crew Room Conversations” is my attempt to make the Indian Helicopter Industry known to all. - ⁠In this regard, I look forward to your support and encouragement. You all may not be directly connected to the industry but I look forward to your engagement in everything that I do. - ⁠It is my earnest request to share the episodes with your friends and family.

- 23 birds x 2.5 circuits (on an average )x6 pax each. That is around 300 Yatris inducted into the valley today. It also means around 1500 Yatris in rotation from one dham to next. - Add to this 8 Kedar shuttle helicopters which fly almost 72 total hours daily. ( among 8 of them) Each hour average 25 Yatris up and 25 Yatri down. That is 3600 total (up and down)per day by all shuttle helicopters. - For all this to happen safely and smoothly we need pilots , engineers , technicians, ground handlers , commercial crew, drivers, hotel staff etc etc. All working tirelessly from 0400 to 1800 each day for almost 45 days at a stretch. - I am reasonably convinced that no where in the world will we see such kind of concentrated operations in an area of 90 nms x 40 nms. - The Indian Helicopter industry surely deserves much more attention than it possibly gets. - There has been a marked improvement in recent years but there is a lot of work pending. I am not only hopeful but confident that the industry will have rapid growth in coming years. Jai Shree Kedar Jai Badri Vishal @MoCA_GoI @RamMNK @DGCAIndia @PMOIndia

- An integral part of @IAF_MCC is the Crew Room banter. - In consonance with our culture, my dear @IamKhedkar made this 🤣🤣🤣

- I said it in past , I say it today “ Agniveer is a good thing “ - Baki there shall be perceptions and opinions and arguments and debates , all is fine. - To reach any conclusion we probably have to wait for few more years. - Like I said in past , @IAF_MCC shall make best use of the allotted and trained manpower. 4 saal mein waise bhi koi independently engine change nahi karta , so it’s fine. Analogy can be drawn for all our trade jobs. Baki charcha chalu rahe. Very proud of @Dev_Fadnavis

Dear Academically Brilliant Veterans, - If you continue to discuss and decide all about Theatre etc etc, then what will the serving do. - Apka time chala gaya, apne jinko groom kiya , acche No diye woh leadership is sab mamle mein acche nirnay lene ke liye saksham hai. - Krupa kare aur apne bhavnao ko kabu mein rakhe. Argument, experience and gyaan ka combination bahut vichitra hota hai. Josh josh mei “War Plans” na discuss ho jaye on X. - Baki seniors ko kuch bhi suggest Karna shayad uchit nahi hota , isliye maafi ke saath is tweet ko apke “ perusal “ ke liye prastuth kar raha hu. Apka apna , Ati average Junior Veteran
