Re: No F16’s for Pakistan-Pakistan left in the shadows (merged)
yeah i am sure your happy days were shattered after reading the article. And as far as 500 hours thing is concerned, it can be any reason. As i said before, he was an intructer at that time, so thats why he might have not flown. Also there can be many reasons. And i have my own sources too that i trust much more than news paper clippings. Your answer to your cheif’s 0.8%, i already gave if you read my posts above Well i will say it again. India has a huge transport fleet and that is what keeps that Indian attrition rate that low. For fighters its way way more. You can look at the rates per planes from an Indian news paper and see how much it averages out to.
The facts remain that you want to believe what makes you happy and, i know i am the same way too. I am sure the things are not as good as i want to believe they are and they are not definitely as bad as you think they are either.
