JAMNAGAR, Two MIG-21s are in formation take-off, No 2 gets into his leader's Jet wash and looses control and prepares to eject, the ground controller watching all this in desperation shouts on the radio, eject, eject, eject.
The MIG leader who is by now airborne thinks the order is for him ultimately also ejects . If only the ground controller had mentioned No2 in the call out, the unnecessary loss would have been avoided.
SRINAGAR, Local IAF Commander invites the media and other personalties to display the all weather capabilities of the Jaguar aircraft,
Once everybody is present, a formation of four Jaguars head off in adverse weather conditions, however to everyone's dismay and IAF's embarrassment, all the aircraft fail to return.
It later transpires that two of them crashed while the other pair had to be diverted elsewhere, alas despite it's namesake the aircraft turns out to be a pussy cat.
IOK, During the Kargil confrontation, the IAF commissions a new airfield in the territory. In a show of publicity, the base commander inaugurals the first flight by taking-off in a Russian made transport aircraft with many VIPs and Media Moguls on board.
In his enthusiasm the Commander fails to realize and breaches the LOC, ultimately the intruding Indian aircraft is greeted with a couple of Anza missiles from Pakistani forces which knock out one of it's engines, realizing his grave mistake the Indian Commander quickly dives back into the sanctuary of Indian airspace, however seeing an aircraft entering India from Pakistan side, the Indian ground troops open fire on it.
Although the official Indian version is that the stricken transport plane made a successful emergency landing, but some report suggest otherwise.
