Having flown into many of India’s airports I can also attest that most of the taxiways/ramps barely meet load ratings.

"Airlies" in headline a Freudian slip?

That's what that airline calls itself. The headline is correct in that area. Can't vouch for anything else in there, though :-)

Well, you've served up a real puzzler here. Surprisingly, some folks come to this website for coverage of aircraft and commercial aviation topics.
