"This aircraft is preserved outside the elite Combat Commanders School (CCS) at Sargodha AB. The aircraft is said to have been retired prematurely due to a pilot pulling very high G's during one manoeuvre and 'bending' it!"

Dear MK sahib, was it just Mirages you ruined by pulling too many G's, or did you get an F-6 too? :lol:
 
good plane.
rugged and masculine. just the sort of thing men go to war in.
served us well.
those 30mm cannons stopped many a intruder.
 
Oh Muradk did pull many G on F-6..He said pulling G's on these type of air crafts was like hanging yourself but still he pulled so man y G's in F86.

this is how Gen. C/Yeager discribed the F-6/MiG-19 in his book - "the pakistanis had these real cheap chinese a/c which could be discarded after 100 hours of flying but they out-classed the indians with their more expensive and superior a/c"
 
9gs is no bloody joke. Even a pilot of shorter height would be under a good amount of duress Man i love these aircrafts. The guns on these bad boys - they proved their worth. This particular example in the picture looks quite pristine, almost factory perfect!
