RIP.

These F7s and Mirages need to be retired as soon as possible. Ps or PGs they are all crap.
 
Very unfortunate incident.May Allah SWT forgive him.
Engine fire can be catastrophic in a short time. WP-7 uses GH46 HT alloy and GH 33A heat resistance alloys for turbine disc over-expansion and afterburner nozzle closure preventing heat buildup and premature shutdown. This should not have happened. Probably maintenance was the issue. Investigate.
 
Over 300 aircraft took part in last highmark exercise, this year will be the same if not more taking part. This incident had a high probability of taking place.
 
And airplanes can live long for decades, if their airframe and engine is designed to do so. PAF cannot be legally flying flying if they the airframe is past it's life, and they don't. They have retired the ones that were past their life. Obviously they become more prone to failure as they age, and that's why maintenance practices also change with time, some airframe require extended inspections on much shorter intervals. Highmark is meant to duplicate war time scenarios, meaning the aircraft would start taking part in it's pristine condition but as the exercise progress they would only get inspected for a shorter period of time as they would in wartime.
 
the more you fly, the more the jets will tend to malfunction.we(ind and pak) are no developed countries nor do we have the full industrial base/money to produce and procure every spare for buttersmooth operation. If you fly the jets like commercial plane, straight and smooth, that wont increase the probability of malfunction but will affect the pilots fighting skill; if you do combat manuver more often the result will be viceversa. The current situation is exactly like that. Due to operation highmark, the paf planes are subjected to much stress. Hence the accident.

Add their age as an additive factor
