Nope,his Facebook account went active today so no such thing happened.

KT has always had something for talking. A remarkable man by achievements but he has had made mistakes before. Naming a list without any confirmation from ISPR or the Air Force Media team speaks volumes about his current character.

What are his achievements anyway?

Showed his blog to USAF personell and a former F-16 engineer- they were aghast at his adhocism and ignorance of safety in flying.

 

[Dazzler]

What about blinders and AEW&C sqns are they getting any awards??
They had a huge role to play.

Yes, all who were involved. I have the list with me.

Maybe you aren't privy to it but just ask @TheTallGuy and @omaromar

TallGuy's credibility is highly questionable. I am yet to be convinced by any of this person's claims...not even sure if they are tall ...or a guy.

You really need to expand on this more

Windjammer confirmed on another thread he was canned because of his impromptu interview with the CAS.

Now its not a conspiracy.

Next is tallguy and omars claim of 8 aircraft - at the number of pilots getting awards, seems it is evidence to support their claim...

I am not going to get into KT's achievements, but when you say "he's a decent pilot", you must have flown with him, yes or no?

 

[Jammer]

Oscar, yes or no? @Oscar

 

[Raider 21]

Oscar, yes or no? @Oscar

Not necessarily. But a word from his IPs and juniors are from where most of us have heard about his proficiency as a pilot.
