India don't have domestic aviation blah blah blah, every nut and bolt is imported.

what are you trying to convey??....explain the context in which i said 'domestic aviation'?.

some pilots of IAF have left and joined domestic private airlines to fly commercial jets. From where does the topic of bolt and nut comes?...

Besides, i favour those pilots who joined private airlines (after serving IAF for considerable number of years). what's wrong in it?...i dont see anything wrong in it. Respect and prestige could also be won by showing flexibility and freedom. Even in USAF and US navy, there are cases of pilots leaving. That too when the domestic aviation sector has literally boomed and there is shortage of pilots, what's wrong if some men from airforce join them?. nothing wrong in it, atleast to me.

Unfortunately I do not have pictures to explain but in a nut shell each and every jet that India has crashed so far is imported from Russkie land… What aviation industry you are refering to unless if its the paint job that you are so good at… For last 12 years the average attrition rate is 1 every two weeks… Great ain’t it..

Pen is mightier than the sword. Did u ever hear that. Take a look at how many planes pakistan have and how many India have. I mean military planes. India have employed more fighter pilots than required, but still have almost the double the no. of pilots than pakistan have.

And yet it only takes one of our pilots to knock out and entire squadron of Indian jets.. You should hope that if India accepts peace and the relation improve, that Indian pilots will be allowed proper flight training in Pakistan…

^ yes my dear pakistan military is mighty, otherwise how would they enslave 140million people.

Well, still better then the Indian army… I mean, consider how many “men” you have in Kashmir… Ten years, half a million soldiers and they still havent controled the Kashmiris… And ofcouse, the soldiers then have to take their frustrations out on innocent people…

Go and read some comparitive data. Don’t just beat around the bush.

Abstract below:
**In straight numerical terms of population, economic might, military manpower and equipment it is almost meaningless to speak about an India-Pakistan balance. **
**“Imbalance” would be a more appropriate term since India dominates in every respect.

They also dominate in odor… If only the deodorant industry had been as succesful as the IT industry…
None the less, its not numerical superiority that counts, its quality…

Re: Indian air force 'lacks planes'

Point here is not compare it with PAF, to discuss the state of air force of the country who wants to be a super power.

working for PAF is pride of our youth, and no one will consider going to commercial airlines.

plus Pakistan civial aviation has enough schools to train the required commercial pilots.

what would be moral of the force when many want to leave but are forced to stay in IAF.

i think its serious concern for IAF. they should be worried about it.
