sirJb aatish jawan tha. Ab to log light le jatay hain.
the pilots that crashed( f7 )yesterday what happens to them , in US they get suspended till the investigation is completed and then they get to fly again
so what would happen in pakistan
also do we know what happened . engine failure, pilot error or bird strike .

Investigation into the crash and medical assessment of pilot(s). They would likely be grounded until both aspects are cleared.

OC 20 is my coursemate but didn't want to bother him, so haven't asked yet. After ejection, pilots generally don't fly before going through multiple medical tests. Preliminary investigation is completed by then but complete inquiry takes much longer than that and many pilots are back on flying even in USA.

I know a few pilots who ejected from their jets. They never returned to the cockpit. At least one or two were promoted to the rank of air commodores and then retired.

There can be many reasons for that. Last year, a Mirage DP crashed and OC Flying wing (Gp Capt) and the student pilot ejected. If you watch that video, you will see that the OC may never fly again.

When one mentions videos, one should share the links to them also
My interaction with PAF pilots has been in a civilian capacity, so I cannot say I have personally experienced the turmoil that comes with ejections. However, I have observed, been told, and in a few cases seen pilots grounded due to health or injury-related issues. If the pilot has damage to spinal discs as a result of ejection, that seems like a quick pathway to a permanent desk job.

The problem is the chute........or to be more precise, the Circular parachutes also referred to as round canopies.
These chutes rely entirely on aerodynamic drag to slow a fall. While highly reliable for low-altitude deployments, their major drawbacks are a lack of steerability, dangerous drift with the wind, and a high risk of hard, uncontrollable landings.
The highlighted part, especially the hard landing bit, is the major cause of 90% of the injuries suffered.
On the other hand, modern, rectangular parachutes allow a pilot to perform a "landing flare," which trades forward momentum for a brief moment of upward lift to create a soft touchdown.
On the other hand, round chutes have no such capability. Unless the wind perfectly matches your trajectory, the descent is completely vertical, routinely resulting in bone-jarring or injury-inducing impacts. Resulting in permanent grounding in quite a few cases.

Will try to find that video clip but the point is that ejection takes a toll on the body.When one mentions videos, one should share the links to them also

Chief of the Air Staff met with Mr. Selcuk Bayraktar, Chief Technology Officer of Baykar Technologies. The interaction focused on advancements in aerospace innovation, unmanned aerial systems and emerging technologies, reflecting the shared vision of both sides to pursue greater collaboration in next-generation defence technologies.At Turkish Air Force Headquarters, he received a Guard of Honour and discussed enhancing interoperability through joint exercises, training programmes, and professional exchanges.
The Turkish Air Chief appreciated Pakistan Air Force’s support in training Turkish pilots.

I am pleasently surprised to see the FT-7 had martin baker ejection seats!!
I am hoping that both pilots did not pick up any long last injuries and can return to flying soon - esp. the cadet pilot who was just starting his career as a fighter pilot.
