New Delhi: Jet Airways' pilots said on Tuesday they remain committed to the airline and will leave no stone unturned to ensure that it returns to its former glory. "We look forward to a new beginning," said Capt Tej Sood, General Secretary of the National Aviators Guild (NAG), in a letter to Rajnish Kumar, Chairman of the State Bank of India (SBI) which will lead the consortium of lenders to provide Rs 1,500 crore in emergency funding and bail out the financially-strapped airline.

The development came a day after Jet Airways Chairman Naresh Goyal and his wife Anita holding 51 percent of the equity resigned from the board and transferred control to the lenders. An interim management committee has been created to manage and monitor daily operations and cash flow.
