That is horrible mman! Sorry to hear that pakistanio. I hope india and pakistan retire their old planes and get some new ones!!!
[ NOTE FROM ADMIN: Please don't LAUGH in threads about dead pilots. You would not want people to laugh when Indian jets crash and we all know how often that happens! If you want to discuss capabilities of the planes, go open a new thread or discuss in threads which are already open on the subject!
Here's the news from the Dawn:
