Indian build quality is so poor. I think some of screws are even missing. Also look at the way the metal sheets are joined together.
 
Update: As per very reliable sources it is revealed now that India's latest Tejas MK1A jets have 24 four airframes but have no engines, only two MK1A jets were delivered to IAF and that two sent for air show....One of them have problems of leaking and other one jets Crashed.

Now every body cursing USA for not providing engines on time and since only MK1A jets have BVR and air refueling capabilities so they were over used to train pilots.

The Indians are indeed blaming the Americans for delivering poor engines. The Indians are also blaming the Americans for not delivering engines on time and thus being a supporter of Pakistan.

The nose drop as aircraft was getting upright was a little strange and abrupt. Why would nose go down like that? That caused aircraft to start going down, when there seems to be an attempt to get it back up. But there was no time.

i made a post, but, in the F-16, when you bounce off the alpha limiter, the fcs tries to dump the nose down so you cant deep stall the aircraft. Im guessing Tejas also has a alpha ceiling, which would make sense considering all the way to the ground, the aircraft maintained a constant AoA pitch, unable to pull any higher

That was all that mattered between other days and this one.
Could he have abandoned the aircraft? That question would haunt many of us and more so his wife and child.

while zero zero ejection seats allow zero alt and zero airspeed, they dont necessarily allow ejection in all flight regiemes, there are sink rate limits, and here, it seemed like the sink rate was significant

the entire world says that Indian pilots aren't trained properly.

They have some of the lousiest training in the world. Even the Russians... their allies.. call them "Cow in cockpit" when they train them.

They are not allowed to think for themselves... every twist and turn needs to be okayed from ground control. You saw what happened to Nandoo.... we jammed his comms and he forgot how to fly the plane and got shot down.

And then they gave him a medal for being "cow in cockpit" and forgetting how to fly the plane. They reward mediocre actions and behavior.

Odd that it is "always" someone else's fault, and not theirs, isn't it ... Always.

You see the video and you believe on that? He was flying over desert quite safe distance from crowd.
 
Update: As per Indian experts US provided them 45 years old tech engines with under power thrust. as per them over the years USA did very little to improve the thrust since these engines were build to work as pair to power twin engine jets.
