Re: General Kayani leads from the front
Yesterday activity was most surprising and exciting activity seen by this nation in years from COAS.
I 30% agree with Mad_Scientist. There was a great deal of risk involved flying this top notch state of the art Fighter plane and doing this Mark 2 sortie. But at the end end of the day he passed the test with flying colours :k:
Mind you the flying this extreme machine F-16 requires physical and mind endurance and a decade long extensive training.
I watched and observed just one simmilar action where PAF allowed a non-pilot to take a ride of this F-16. They thoroughly checked his medical fitness and made him sign a document that he will not lodge any legal action against the Air force in case he lost his mind or body or senses during the once in life time ride.
That was an amazing and rare tv documentry shown on tv some 4 years ago (2004 ) I was lucky that i saw that programe that day. Sadly that show is not available anywhere for viewing/ but thank to gupshup, we have the shared experience from that time recorded and accessable any time. from anywhere :k:
