@fatman17 you will find it very interesting that one website even declared two ejection seat with a provision of third has been fitted in Super Mushak LOL.
if they have managed that, then its a great improvement on pilot safety and survivability

PINDI BHATTIAN: A trainee jet of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) crashed in the fields here on Wednesday, however the instructor and the cadet pilot managed for a safe escape from the falling aircraft - ARY News reports.
The incident took place when the engine of the aircraft failed due to some technical reasons, during the trainee flight. The instructor made timely decision and ejected out the pilot and himself, both of them safely landed with the help of parachutes.
Sources told that both the pilots received minor injuries, while the aircraft was completely destroyed on hitting the ground.

New Recruit
Well with to MBs installed the aircraft will not take off. Just a misleading information on net.
Generally in such scenarios Mushak is landed in the field, it needs very less landing distance. If the field is uneven, there are chances of aircraft doing cartwheel. Injuries may be inflicted to pilots, but chances of survival are more. There is no ejection seat in this aircraft. But as per the news pilots are safe.Supposedly it was destroyed in the news yet the pilot and instructor ejected to safety??
They might have bailed out.

Picture posted by TheoccupiedKashmir suggests that it is not Mushak as a jet engine can be seen. So alot of confusion.
seems 03. So the picture in ARY is incorrect. And dont worry, it will be again up and running.It was a Mushak...

Cause of crash : Engine failure.It was a Mushak...

There is no bailing out from Mushak as pilots dont wear parachute in it. Only way is force land and egress.Well it might just be possible to simply bail out of the Mashak, in the old WWII era style. But if that was the case then it would have happened from quite an altitude and the remainder of the bird wouldn't be so clean.
