Even though Gopinath has started his airline for a good enough cause of providing opportunity to every common man to fly there were some external factors like the air traffic congestion, fuel surcharge, lack of aviation infrastructure, support issues like cargo handling, lack of pilots, troublesome weather, etc were hampering the efficiency of Air Deccan. Increased passenger traffic and low cost model pushed the airline into losses. I like the aspect of Gopinath to save the employees by avoiding lay off kind of a situation. Frequent delays tarnished the image of Deccan. I find no ill intention with Mallya as he was planning to expand and there was Deccan waiting to be rescued. Only that the infrastructure should improve as soon as possible to give life to the aviation industry so that more such Air Deccans take birth and more Kingfishers take on the world aviation biggies.
