army aviation pilots are good in pinnacle landing. never saw air force pilots doing some landing like this, most of the time air force pilots ask for a proper helipad for landing the coppers. even in uttarakhand flood air force asked for a proper helipad for landing.

So much efforts for Nepal and what we get in return is Nepalese media criticising us for the one helicopter sortie to Northern Nepal by mistake carried out with no ill intention but to help earthquake vicitims.

I have read some of their comments on the US Army exercise with Indian Army Gurkhas.I think our neighbours like Nepal,SL and Bangladesh are keen on spoiling relations due to their jealousy towards India.
Our one helicopter went north and they are complaining about national security and what about the hundreds of terrorists that enter India from Nepal and they even got our airliner hijacked in 99.
Anyways,we should continue the good work and earn haters.
there are few pro-china Maoists in nepal, only they will criticize india,
is that incident of IAF chopper entering north is that much serious issue?? i don't think nepal gov. or army will protest against india for this, as india is helping them than any other country. india already provided $500 million of aid to that country. indian aid is much higher that the combined amount of aid form all other countries.
