Mystery of the Downed Mystère of IAF No 1 Squadron

[Windjammer]

I also remember reading in "Fiza'ya" (written by Pushpindar Singh, Ravi Rikhye and Peter Steinemann) that the Mig-21s stationed at Pathan Kot were continuously flying supersonic sorties over the base in attempts to scare off any incoming attack by the PAF with their sonic booms. 10 min (if I remember correctly) before they were supposed take off for their next sortie the PAF struck and put the Mig-21s out of the war while still on the ground.

The Indians were probably trying to imitate the PAF actions in the psychological warfare, the difference is that PAF did supersonic runs over Amritsar to send a clear message.

it is even better to ignore the troll
the way he baited everyone with his post should have been enough sign that he wants to fck this good thread. a story of sacrifice and commitment of two air warriors belonging to opposing air forces.

but sadly you and others chose to quote him and although his message is deleted but it lives on in all the reply posts as a quote there.. which is an on going tragedy with such cases. his purpose served

if you an others can still edit your posts then remove his quoted nonsense. otherwise ask the mods to do it for you




these are the comments, although one liners but true representation of reaction to anyone who reads them without any malice or nationalistic jingoism. truly it is a very raw and real story of sacrifice and dedication and I wish that the grave of the fallen Indian pilot is marked and given full respect and if the IAF wishes, the body remains be repatriated with full military honours.

True, Mr. Irfan. However, most of us here don't need a lecture on ethics and morality. This is a forum, sometimes people will handle a post or a comment in a way that might not compute with you. As long as the post is within the set boundaries and rules of this forum, then please try to let it go. I appreciate your effort and realize your intent, but at the same time don't think a lecture is warranted nor a comparison between "good" and "bad" posts is desired.

Sir,

Please excuse my indulgence---if you have kept your mouth shut for the last 7 years----it is highly recommended that you keep it that way.

Mastan,
What you said makes no sense. If somebody has been quite that does not mean he remains so. Please refrain from personal attacks, I still believe this forum is open and welcoming to anybody that has a point of view, as long as the idea or comment is expressed while considering the rules of the forum. Regrettably, your recommendation infinitely wise as it may be is not considered.

Jammer,

Off course it does not make sense to you---why would it. I often see it on Pakistani TV discussion shows when al the discussions have been carried out and at the end this guy stands up and says " I have been sitting quietly and listening to all what you said " and then comes with a smart remark or a couple of verses of poetry.

Well that was a big Pakistani thing and seems like it still is----world have moved away a long time ago----. Speak up and participate in time---otherwise keep your mouth shut---because time has passed you.

We don't need critics over here who have 6 posts in 7 years---we need people who can participate---. Why don't you post----put your thoughts and then let us RIP you to pieces and then we will see what are you made of.

Mastan,
Why does it matter if I have 10,000 posts or 2 to participate in this forum? Some of us are here because this forum is an excellent amalgamation of military news, I have actually enjoyed reading your posts in the past, they have been informative, which is why my actual interaction with you has been disappointing on accounts of your unnecessarily aggressive behavior. What does a Pakistani talk show participants behavior have to do with mine? Do you decide if someone with 6 posts in 7 years can post a further 4 or 5 posts or should just shut up? It is in your control to stop that? If so please go ahead, it would be disappointing for me to loose access to an excellent source of information but so be it. However, if you do not have that authority and have other hobbies besides sitting on this forum and judging random forum members, I would suggest please concentrate on them also. I will especially ask you to stop using instigating and rude comments (for the second time) like "keep your mouth shut". By the way if I post in the future and people jump on me and RIP me apart I won't really care because this is "just" a forum. There are enough tests, challenges and fears to overcome in life then getting RIPPED to pieces on a forum, so, not exactly shaking in my boots Mr.Mastan.
