About 'switch' story read the news and about girls, see their profiles man they have only chicks as their friends and clicking pics infront of jet fighters wearing Aviator sunglasses from Ray Ban to impress chicks! dude this is from experience! when you indulge in such things, u loose sight of your goals! and I am not kidding!
p.s -: I am not generalizing and blaming every pilot on above mentioned things
Dude! I have as many friends out there and when it comes to professionalism they are at par with the best. Your comments are in the end shows how ridiculous your comment is. Accidents do happen due to various reasons and stop being a moral moron.
The two SU-30MKI crahses ....
A Su-30MKI aircraft crashed on 30 April 2009 in the Pokhran region of Rajasthan after it took off from Pune during its routine sortie, killing one of its two pilots. Defence minister A K Antony, had held that the April 30 crash was due to "a likely failure of the fly-by-wire system". The Sukhoi fleet had then been grounded for around three weeks. However it was found that this crash at Rajmathai village, around 170 km from Jaisalmer, in April was because of the position of the various critical switches of the aircraft. The switches were behind the pilots and they would have to turn them on and off without looking back. At one point, a wrong switch was turned on, leading to the crash on April 30. Wing Commander PS Nara was killed in the mishap, while Wing Commander SV Munje was injured. After investigators identified the problem, a couple of difficult switches were sealed off.
Another Su-30MKI aircraft crashed on 30 November 2009 in Jathegaon, about 40 km from Jaisalmer. The pilots ejected after they saw fire alarm buttons glowing red. Both the pilots are unharmed. This is second such crash of this fighter. The Sukhoi mishaps have come as a setback to the 12 year safety record IAF had achieved with the aircraft which was inducted into the force in 1996. As a result the entire fleet of Su-30MKIs was grounded while the cause of the problem was investigated.
The first crash was a pilot error no doubt and is being taken care off subsequently. The second is an Engine failure.
