Even as the lenders wait for the last day, April 10, to see what kind of interest prospective bidders show in taking over the beleaguered Jet Airways, its 1,100-strong domestic pilots body, the National Aviators Guild (NAG), on Tuesday served a legal notice to the airline, setting April 14 as the deadline for the new management to clear their salary dues.
Jet Airways pilots, engineers and senior executives have not been paid for the last three months amid cash crunch in the airline that saw an ownership change last month with banks taking majority shares. Along with these staff, the airline has defaulted on the payment of March salaries to other some employees as well.
