[Leviza]

From Whom?
Victims: Chief minister of Gujurat, His Wife,3 of his personal staff and a press reporter....All of them civilians flown by a civilian pilot in a civilian aircraft.

lol PAF pilot saw one indian aircraft violating Pakistani air space , no one knows at that time who was in ? what they were doing in Pakistani airspace ... having romantic dinner?

Great job by PAF pilot on order from ground staff after waiting for 4-5 mins , ground staff must have done something with in this 4-5 mins?

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

salute to that officer

 

[Devil Soul]

Not many people have the guts/courage to say what he said... well done Sir.

As said, the Aircraft was denied for a liftoff by the IAF but the Ministry gave the clearance and paid the price.

thats what i am saying that nothing wrong from PAF pilot side ... and as i have seen some of indians comments like Paf pilot was wrong and indian got killed was innocent ... he paid the price for violating Pakistani air space...

They knew it was a passenger aircraft. as a request for action had come from Flg Off Qais M Hussain stating the aircraft as a twin-engined, twin-tailed aircraft….with four side windows.

Airspace violation is not the term to be used for a civilian aircraft. I dont think such VIP's and that too our babu's would risk sitting in an aircraft which going to fly to a hostile airspace without proper call sign.

there are no evidence of proper call sign so i am not discussing that .......

Me too. Although as I said prior to my arguments here that the attitude of the PAF pilot is worth an applause.

No one questioning his valor, but I'm sure that he was suffering from a guilty conscience when he found that the dead were all civilians, eventhough he just obeyed his superiors. He just wanted a clear conscience before he dies and hence this gesture.

On the otherhand PAF could have forced the Indian aircraft to land inside the Pakistani border, instead of just choosing to shoot it down when it was very clear that the aircraft was of civilian nature.

Thanks you are not understanding my point of view, but he just wrote the letter as media was creating wrong assumptions about this whole story and as fighter his like to put the facts right , and thats what he did.

from his later i can see he waited for 4-5 mins for ground staff order and he acted on that , within these 4-5 mins they must have pointed out the intentions of violating aircraft before given green signal of shots ....

Humans after all! Good gesture.

Its imortant that our fighting forces remain 100% professional, then they remain human under their uniforms and armor. Then there is hope.

what the hell!!! you rather have them be professional then human!!! i am sure if the story was reversed you would be all awe for him. just like you are all in awe for dhoni but you forget that same dhoni appealed incorrectly against inzimam twice!! inorder to get him out!!

The incident has so much resemblance with Atlantic incident except for latter being an civilian aircraft and former was one with military commanders on board. But then these things do happen in wars. So there should be no regrets on either side except for that of lives that have been lost.

I was commending the good gesture!
