Featured IAF Mi-17-V5 Helicopter carrying CDS Bipin Rawat with family crashes

I would suspect IAF behind his murder as they had a serious conflict about IAF reporting to CDS reporting

I am more inclined towards IAF as they were dead against Bipin's plan of IAF taking a supporting role to IA and they had the opportunity as only they have access to all flying assets including helicopters. they operate, maintain, fly and apparently crash them.

As per some sources (both indian & Pakistanis intelligence & armed forces) the tussle between the three branches have caused a lot of uneasiness within Indian armed forces and this crash is most likely sabotage to remove Bipin Rawat from CDS post perpetrated by Indian Airforce or Navy.

@Khanate,

What Bipin has done to Kashmiris and minorities in India is part of history. For his negative role, he will be remembered in negative words.

But we should not celebrate death and silence is possibly the best expression for us. We also hope the next Indian military chief be a bigger human and lesser clown than Bipin Rawat was.

it looks to me as if it was deliberately flown into that pocket of fog wherein or behind which the hillside was concealed.

it was no himalayan mountain which can suck you in when flying parallel to it. it flew not parallel but into the hill

Disclaimer: I have no idea what I am talking about, so please feel free to ignore it (instead of fighting me about it)

Even piston engine helos now have terrain avoidance radars. It's a few thousand dollars piece of equipment.

Aside from this, flying so low, in bad visibility, knowing that the terrain is hilly is a suicide.

Potato piloting.
 
Does IAF follows any protocol regarding the weather conditions. As per the video, there was lots of fog yet they chose to fly under such circumtances and in the end asking for trouble. Who gave it a go ahead to fly especially when there was no emergency. Very unprofessional of the pilots to fly in an area which is full of mountains and surrounded with thick fog.

 
No RIP for him cause if I wish that he rest in peace so should we say this to Hitler ? Stalin or Baghdadi ? my condolences are for his family but for him I have no words of peace or sympathy, my words will not do any justice to what he will go through now as his affairs are with Allah SWT, his actions , his orders and his shirk will make him burn in hell for a long long time. And for those Indians who were joking and laughing about the PAF pilots, now laugh and make fun as your Top General is burned like crisp potato.
 
Nah, simply crashed the helicopter. There services have a long history of mis-haps from ships , submarines, & aircraft screw ups.

I have to agree now after I saw the ANI video of the last moments of that flight. Hill top Clouds are a bad idea.

Classic CFIT - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controlled_flight_into_terrain

Simple incompetence flying VFR in totally blind cloudy condition.

The pilot did not stop and penetrated the cloud without even a second thought.

The TAWS did not work in that heli, trusting it was a bad idea. Too late probably before the pilot realized that terrain was too close.


What stupidity - and the amount of risk taken. Lesson for the rest of us...

I am sure they will recover the black box but I doubt they will make the findings public.

Will place a lid on any statements from that one survivor as well.

The question is not correct! Helicopters fly in fog when equipped with the proper instrumentation. These flights are conducted under Instrument Flight Regulations (IFR) and are permissible provided that the pilot is qualified for flying in this flight regime, and the helicopter possesses the necessary instrumentation. Many small helicopters are not so equipped, and can only be operated under Visual Flight Regulations (VFR). Most civilian helicopter operations are under VFR conditions; the military often times operates under IFR conditions as the helicopters are larger, more sophisticated and capable.

The precipitation in the Western Ghats happens in hours. The weather when they started flying may not be the same as what they flew into.
 
Sanghis and lots of bad intentioned Indian posters joked galore regarding the deaths of our brothers (2 majors) in the army crash. Just a day or two later their own military leader along with a good deal of leadership is wiped out.
