An Indian Tejas fighter jet crashed during an aerial display at the Dubai Air Show

These are the Hindu fanatics that we want to feel sad for?

No need to feel sad for india this is what decades of anti Pakistan sentiment does. This is the perfect day to compare these 2 programs as Pakistan wins 2 different MoUs for jf-17 at DAS and india continues to lose more planes and pilots pancaking into the ground

Goes to show the utter gutter their supposedly "renowned" military journalists live in.

This mindset will require generational weaning off. It is a poison that has been filled into their heads by RSS/BJP for the past 3 decades and most in this generation will not find the ability to get over it. That is, if they even want to.

Line dancing?

I will ask my wife when she gets off work; like all Southerners, she knows line dancing rather well.

Dont waste time on him he will never admit that instead he will try to prove Wah Kiya crash kiya hai, tum ker k dikhao.

at the end of the day, aerobatics are inherently dangerous

i stopped just over a year ago after my family was not too keen on the dangers that came with it.

Infact, my last aerobatics session was in an aircraft, that not long after crashed and killed the pilot onboard. He was a very experienced aerobatics pilot, and an ex combat pilot who ended up in a flat spin and died.

We always had pre rehearsed and planned routines, however, as per the AAIB report

The investigation was unable to establish why the pilot flew such manoeuvres, unapproved and at low level. It was not possible to exclude a control restriction or a pilot incapacitation for the lack of sufficient recovery before the aircraft struck the ground.

which once again, as i said, shit happens.

If you want to read the full report, search up G-EEEK, it was an Extra 200

Horrific - may the family of the pilot find patience
I had a foreboding feeling something was going to happen this airshow and was actually afraid a JF-17 would go down or otherwise - a situation of “too much celebration”. Unfortunately it came true.

Yup, can't say that the Chinese and the Pakistanis are very JOYOUS! This crash gives a huge boost to China and Pakistan's military collaboration. But the icing on the cake would be Trump starts bringing up this crash to try to sell India the F-35 jets.

It would be obvious that PAF would target the Indian F-35.

BJP paid touts are really weird creatures. Don't even consider him a journalist.

Another video shows the samosa was leaking oil on ground before it went airborne. And Indian aircraft technicians were using shopping bags to collect the oil . Damn professional behaviour. And they still allowed the jet to perform for airshow.

That's plain wrong ... the leaking aircraft was KH-5025, the one that flew and crashed KH-2026.

As brought by many posters with knowledge in this field, each manoeuvre is pre-planned and rehearsed. Spur of the moment manoeuvres are unlikely to be executed.

Since the pilot was doing the displays regularly , he would be well aware of all these aspects.

There can be an error due to faulty instruments, mechanical failure or pure simple error of judgement induced by some confusion. One member posted about pilot loosing consciousness due to extreme nature of manoeuvres.
Many of these aspects are likely to become clear after they recover the black box and analyse it.

The last few seconds on the video I saw show him completing a low level barrel roll - regardless of the rate it is still very dangerous at that altitude.

It doesn’t seem like the aircraft either has an issue or otherwise. Im not sure where he was looking but perhaps he misjudged the terrain cues - to @Ak01 point you’re not on instruments and in the last seconds it seems like he was not expecting terrain.
