Alba!
Wonderful report
Air India believe it or not was a good airline - one of the gems of the country when run by Ratan Tata until 1975 when Indira Gandhi nationalised it. Singapore Airlines was modeled after Air India as the benchmark and even thought of buying it and luckily decided against it in the late 1990s.
The inefficiency leads to horrendous waste and starvation. 40% of all generated electricity is wasted.
I did read somewhere that AI was a very good airline back then. Let's hope the JV between Tata and SQ comes out with something special!
