Notify PAF Aircraft Crashes

He did eject,saw a picture of his body don't want to post it here but looks like he died because of head injuries.
Well, if what you claim is true - than I find it difficult to believe that he had passed out due to High G's at such low altitude and manage to bail out.

He probably tried to heroically attempt to recover/save the Jet & (eventually) punched out too late.
 
Allah maghfirat fermaye .. Ameen.
I am no expert but it seems to me pilot lost conscious -
 
Here's another Thunderbird incident where the pilot failed to pull out of the loop...to the naked eye, it looks that the jet should be able to pull up but it's descending quicker than it can lift.

It was hard for me to wake up to this news today.

Not because we lost a jet, but the pilot itself.

Block 70's will come, Nauman Akram will not.

I would urge all members to not reach conclusions and try to hold PAF accountable for 'using' F-16. It has been a tradition since decades and we all have enjoyed it without asking any questions before. USAF fields F-22's and RAF is using F-35's now after showcasing Typhoons. It is an absurd notion to disinvent this idea of F-16s in a parade just because something supposedly 'unthinkable' happened.

It was never unthinkable. Whenever these guys up there they know the risk. They perceive, understand and accept it. It is our emotional attachment with the F-16 as forum members which is sparking all this debate.

Every once in a while, history is made, machines malfunction, people are lost. This is exactly what has happened.

Nothing wrong with speculating 'what went wrong'. It appears to be a classic G LOC case (if not pilot error). However, until black box is decoded, verified and accident investigated, we cannot say for sure what happened.

Accept it. Stay humble. And move on.
