Notify PAF Aircraft Crashes

[mike bennett]

As disclosed before, just to avoid the bus terminal, the pilot stayed with his aircraft until the last moment, it seems once in the clear, he ejected but being so low his parachute failed to deploy. A supreme sacrifice indeed.

Please excuse my question.
Has the plane definitely been identified as a Mirage?
I want to ensure I have the details correct.

but at least one pilot could have ejected, they were senior officers and their lives were precious.

Logically correct but I think it's very difficult decision to leave your buddy to let die once mission is not complete. And very few seconds only are available to decide.

At 00:57, is that the helmet? In a previous screenshot of the same area, there is a parachute and something resembling a mangled seat over there as well.

At 00:45, good to see the respect people have for military professionals.

Yes, it is broken helmet. I also saw dismantled canopy and parachute in the recent snaps. It is quite possible that at the last moment when they pulled the ejection cord, the jet got inverted. Landing gear in inverted position was also witnes

In the last Mirage crash where a wing commander and a flying officer died; attributed to bad weather and in this case it was a technical fault and pilots laid their lives in saving Precious lives on ground,

Can you please elaborate the role of bad weather in the last Mirage crash?
