C-130J crashes in Gwalior

Postphone the Rafale deal until these unprofessional buffons get their shit together.
Can't risk spending so much of taxpayer's hard earned money only for these guys to crash it away.

Some of the top brass of IAF must resign.
 
.
We operated our C-130Js into operations from/to areas like Daulat Beg Oldi, Uttarakhand etc. which wereconducted in far more inhospitable and dangerous environments than what PAF had ever undertaken with C-130.Accidents can always happen. Brand new F-22 Raptors used to crash in USAF due to a multitude ofreasons.Edit : I know of a Norwegian C-130J that crashed in 2012.
Look PAF abilities with C130:pakistan:
C-130 during the earthquake 2005 Food supply mission in an remote area of Pakistan.

Look

India also sent two C-130J planes to participate in the search for a Malaysia Airlines plane lost in the southern Indian Ocean. It was not immediately clear if the plane that crashed Friday had been involved in the search.

Smelling a conspiracy theory/Indian-specific problem in everything is what is childish. If you crash one of your AWACS and someIndian makes fun of it, I assure you, some akistaniwillgo back in time to dig up and post the article about our old Airavat AEW prototype crash,The forum has accumulated more jingos and trolls recently than decent member, that's the problem.
A statement by India's air force chief, Air Chief Marshal Arup" the possibility of pilot error."Needless to say, the best pilots have been chosen to fly these aircraft," Raha said."

Thats a brand new aircraft. Its a big loss indeed. Must be some technical issue or pilot error.

I didn't come up with any such excuse. I only responded to your factually incorrect claim that skardu is higher than anything in India. The rest is your imagination, so cut the name calling.
LOL

Read the thread again then u piece of garbage.

Three years old not brand new!
India bought six C-130J aircraft from U.S.-based Lockheed-Martin at a cost of $1.1 billion three years ago.

Six more are on the way as per new deal may be more in future

Duh, tell pakistani members to stop behaving as if we are the only ones in history to have crashed
a C-130.

Case in point, a British and Norwegian C-130Js (which were just as brand-new as IAF ones) had crashed before this
incident.
Moral of the story = accident can happen regardless of aircraft's origin or age. However aging will
increase the chances of crash. Your pathetic attempt at taking a dig at Indians in whatever way you can find
shows how frustrated and desperate you are.

The problem i think is in Testing and Clearing Department of IAF and they didn't check properly or their procedure is outdated or something they don't want to change or a management problem. RAF have an incident record every 250000 flying hours and that is really very good record trust me. Compare to that can any body tell us what is IAF incident record in that term?

Can you tell me one liner from when RAF has inducted C-130, when IAF inducted them & when PAF inducted them?

WHat happened to pilots practicing on simulators for many, many hours? Judging how many hourse are spent shooting live ammo, I am sure our pilots get woefully low hours to practice on simulators if we do have any available........
