Hi,

You answered it yourself---if there were strong winds---strong gusty wings---then why fly in close formation----. Do you have to have an accident to stop doing what you do!

useless to discuss with u sir
so flying started at tuesday this week since the accident at risalpur.

MastanKhan - i'm surprised by your story about cousin's brother's buddy (the former AF pilot)....i find it hard to believe a former combat pilot would take a risk on a giant flying bus - knowing they handle totally differently and have different dynamics to them....and stranger that he'd brag about it

A Pakistan Air Force (PAF) Mirage aircraft has crashed in Uthal, according to local news channels.

At the moment it's clear whether pilot managed to eject from the aircraft safely or not. Search operation has begun for the pilot.

Information about exact type/variant of Mirage also not given by news channels. PAF operates Mirage III (including two-seater trainer) and Mirage V aircraft.

The aircraft had departed from PAF Base Masroor for a routine training flight.

Following map shows distance between Uthal and Mauripur area of Karachi. PAF Base Masroor is located in Mauripur. Sonmiani can also be seen in this map. Sonmiani test and training range is often used by PAF for live ammunition tests/demonstration/exercises.

It is a mirage V.

If things continue this way, we won't have an air force to challenge IAF. WTF is going on, so many losses in a year should be unacceptable!

 

[Jango]

lets hope the pilot is safe.

Phasing out is being done automatically!
