Flight attendants, pilots and airline professionals have been getting a lot of flak from people despite the fact that they are risking their own lives and helping people during this crisis.
But in a humane gesture, Air India Pilot, Captain Manish Sharma received a ‘thank you’ note from the residents of his colony in Chennai. This note was right under the ‘quarantine’ sticker he had received from the municipal authority.
Thank you Capt Manish for ALL your services. You are our HERO.
HUMANITY IS NOT DEAD YET👏

Municipal Authorities had placed a QURANTINE sticker outside the flat of @airindiain Capt Manish after he had operated an international evacuation flight. Instead of any societal backlash, his colony residents placed another sticker hailing him… pic.twitter.com/gmdVW2hYa4
Netizens too appreciated the pilot and his service.
Wonderful news 🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 salute to the good Captain & his Crew

However please do be wary of posting their residence address – it may result in unintended harm. Thank You.
Though there is a lot of societal backlash against pilots, it’s really nice to see this change.
