    PAF journey to excellence

    How did you get from Burma to Pakistan ? - seems to me Burmese officials took a big chance of annoying India by repatriating all of you back to Pakistan......or did the US have anything to do with?? I just cannot imagine the courage it would have taken by Burma to not hand all of you to...

    PAF journey to excellence

    MuradK Sahib you forgot to reply to this question: Let me ask you: who has your squadron's gun camera films? I assume all of you had them with you when you left for Burma - the Indians have released the Boyra shootdown film - I do not understand the PAF's reluctance to release your or West...

    I would recommend that you remove your date of birth from public viewing - there are a lot ID thefts in the United States - this may not affect you - but all the same I think that your DOB should be private

    PAF journey to excellence

    Murad Sahib: Please tell me what you think about this story told by a East Pakistan Works Department engineer (I do not recall where, but for some reason it is in my memory). Soon after the IAF disabled the Dacca runway on whatever date in December, the Base did NOT have resources to...

    PAF journey to excellence

    I am sorry I do not understand: is it available or is it in the process of being published? Secondly, you did not reply to the question of your base of operations being Dacca in 1971....:cheers:

    India concedes six here: News Article in Depth This is just this website's artwork representation of the action on that day from IAF perspective - this NOT a real newspaper and seven here: http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/topics/East_Pakistan_Air_Operations,_1971 very detailed...

    PAF journey to excellence

    Who Was The Best Fighter Pilot Ever ?

    ...no need to react this way, everybody. I am sure that there are things that bother each of that I will find acceptable and vice versa, as in this case. So, no worries! Mr. MuradK: what is this Second Rourke's Drift?:yahoo: I disagree - what Hali thinks IS pertinent......and needs to...

    Who Was The Best Fighter Pilot Ever ?

    I am not sure what elaboration you wish.... I think that one pilot has a certain number of kills and whatever record there is seems to be giving them to someone else.....even Mr. MuradK in his first posting on this issue (Schames vs Shams), in this thread (check it out) described Shamsulhaq as...

    Who Was The Best Fighter Pilot Ever ?

    Firstly, thank you for your response. Secondly, what WILL give me an ulcer is the inability to record history ACCURATELY, specially in cases like this when everyone who was involved is alive and well (Two pilots, two wingmen, a squadron full of cheering mates). History, and specially my...

    Who Was The Best Fighter Pilot Ever ?

    Thank you!:cheers: Obviously these websites including Hali are all wrong - they all give the credit to Flt. Lt. Schames (this Shams was a F/O at the time of the action). With all four (Schames, Shams, wingmen Shamshad and Gul), and other 14 Sqd. pilots Dilawar Hussain, Afzaal alive...

    Who Was The Best Fighter Pilot Ever ?

    Really? Murad Sahib: you say that Shams ul haq was your student and he would pretend to be someone else and not contact you directly???? Why would he do that --- you have his phone number, Call him in Oklahoma right now and ask him why he would do this and insult his Ustaad I do not...
