Dear Anirudh,

The candidate does not have any family commitment. As far as I remember, he
has an elder brother settled in life.

Motivation to flying was adequate.

It was not the candidate but the medical fraternity which was apprehensive
in putting him back to cockpit.

With regards,

Lt Col KK Tripathi
