with codes of military ..there are no consequences...Is that the kind of logic you use in your day to day life. Are you unable to understand the consequence of firing at a civilian airlines ? I didnt think I would have to point this out.
Air India recently found a rather unexpected praise from an Air Traffic Controller (ATC) of- Pakistan.
Air India was operating special flights from India to Frankfurt with relief materials and evacuated European nationals, who were stranded in India as coronavirus swept across continents, perishing millions and crippling the system of passenger planes criss-crossing the world.
"It was a very proud moment for me as well as the entire Air India crew when we heard from Pakistan ATC praising our special flight operations to Europe," one of the senior captains of the special flights told exclusively to ANI.
"As we entered in the Pakistan's Flight Information Region (FIR) and the Pakistan Air Traffic Controller (ATC) greeted us 'Assalaam Alaikum!' This is Karachi's control welcoming Air India for relief flights to Frankfurt," the senior captain quoted the Pakistan ATC as saying.
"Confirm are you operating relief flights for Frankfurt," the Pak ATC further said.
"AFFIRM," said the Air India captain in Pakistan's airspace.
"You are cleared direct to exit point Kebud request estimate crossing Kebud (Exit)," came response from the ATC.
Air India captain replied, saying "Cleared direct Kebud, Thank you."
At this, the Pakistan ATC showered praise on Air India.
"We are proud of you that in a pandemic situation you are operating flights, Good Luck!"
"Thank you so much," responded the captain of India's national carrier.
Furthermore, when the AI captain, who commanded the special flights, asked the Pakistan ATC that he is not getting next radar for the Iran airspace, Pakistan conveyed the Indian jet's position to the Tehran airspace and provided details of the two AI special flights.
Many crew members of AI's Boeing-777 and Boring 787 were deployed for the special evacuation flights for European and Canadian citizens from Mumbai and Delhi.
Before taking off from Mumbai airport, the ATC there, besides giving permission praised the national carrier's efforts amidst crisis, saying "we are proud of you".
The Captain also replied back stating that they were also proud of working with the ATC and all other services as a sign of mutual respect.
After Pakistan airspace, the special AI flight entered Iran. As the captain told ANI, it had never happened before in his entire pilot career that the Middle East country had given a direct route of over 1000 miles.
"First time in my entire career as pilot, Iran gave a direct routing for about 1000 miles a privilege guess enjoyed as special flights, in all especially in the recent tense situation in the Iranian airspace," he said
Iran has rarely given direct route to any of airlines because direct route of Iran airspace is strictly kept reserve for their defence purposes only. Before leaving Iran airspace, the ATC there also wished us 'all the best'," the AI captain told to ANI.
After Iran, the AI special flights entered into the Turkey airspace and then Germany's. "All ATCs from Bombay to Frankfurt welcomed the special flights of Air India and wished us very proudly," the Captain said.
The two special Air India flight flew out stranded European and Canadian citizens from Mumbai. All crew members including the pilots wore the mandatory COVID-19 coveralls for over 20 hours at a stretch (to/from and ground time at Frankfurt). They will now remain in self-quarantine for 14 days.
To prevent of spread of covid-19 virus, India has announced for 21-days lockdown and many of foreign nationals are still stranded in several parts of India.

its a big thing for Indians and air india considering how hateful and pathetic morons they are against Pakistan every time.A ridiculously insignificant news.
Wrong. Modi & RSS animosity towards dalits, muslims, christians and other minorities is not hidden.Modi is the product of a reaction for atrocities committed by Muslims on Hindus for centuries
Wrong,Muslims have been arrogant; violent and disrespectful towards Hindus for centuries
400 years brit lol. You have hight knowledge ...5 stars for you lolIs that the kind of logic you use in your day to day life. Are you unable to understand the consequence of firing at a civilian airlines ? I didnt think I would have to point this out.
A political land distribution doesnt equal a breaking of a country. Clearly you had to dig deep into 800 years as you couldnt bear the embarrassment from 50 years back. Whatever happened centuries ago doesnt concern me as there wasnt even a nation state called India back then. Empires used to rule and disintegrate all the time. Even Britain ruled over the Indian subcontinent for 400 years. Who cares now. A pretty good number of Pakistani go and live there too. Took some land away ? Is that how you write history telling you won every war against India ?
