    Doesn't A320's alert system warn the pilot that the landing gears are not lowered when landing?

    CIA declassified documents Air War 1971 - PAF v IAF

    Bhutto's politicking cannot be ruled out but it is just one of the factors. Bangalis/East Pakistanis had been continuously undermined by the West. Three East Pakistani prime ministers were sent home packing (but to be fair so were West Pakistan prime ministers). The One Unit designed to...

    The history of Quota System in Sindh revealed by Javed Choudary (Courtesy Express News)

    So what? I have seen Urdu speaking men marry Sindhi girls claiming they are more civil. AND if Urdu speaking girls are marrying Sindhi waderas or their sons does that mean Urdu speaking women/girls and their families - or the entire Urdu speaking nation - are GOLD DIGGERS? First thing first...

    The history of Quota System in Sindh revealed by Javed Choudary (Courtesy Express News)

    "... brought civility in them?" Are you kidding me? I am surprised this bigoted thread has been allowed to continue & the bigotted members have not been banned.

    STANISTAN: What if all countries ending in stan where one.

    A more correct terminology would be Greater Khuransan. This could be the fourth identity crisis project after Arabanization, Persianization & Turkicnization.

    The Mao of Sindh: Remembering Hyder Bux Jatoi 50 years on

    Some big names but none of them holds a candle to Shah Sain. Strictly talking in terms of poetry, the only person who possibly comes second to Shah Sain is Shaikh Ayaz but there still remains a light-year of a distance between the two with Shah Sain holding higher stature. I am sure Shaikh Ayza...

    Pakistan F-16 Discussions 2

    Well, the US Dep. of State has just announced the sale of F-16 Block 70 to Taiwan. I am guessing if PAF goes for new F-16s that's the Block that might be available from here on.

    US DOD has approved a FMS for Pakistani F16s for Sniper pods & LANTIRN navigation pod

    Agreed. But at times India and Pakistan do seem to factor into each other's relationship with the US. For instance, Carter refused to sell A-7 Corsair II to Pakistan partially because of Pakistan's nuclear weapons programme and partially because he wanted to improve ties with India. However, I...

    US DOD has approved a FMS for Pakistani F16s for Sniper pods & LANTIRN navigation pod

    I don't think Venezuela has put its 20 F-16s A/B on the market but maybe PAF should talk to them.

    Capabilities of PAF Dassault MIRAGE-III/V.

    Any evidence or a credible source that can be academically cited? (otherwise, it might be passed over as hearsay). This might be helpful for my research work.

    Are you saying a civilian politician actually had a say in arms acquisition in Pakistan?

    Ertugrul and Pakistanis Identity Crisis

    There is a tacit contradiction here and there. Historical plays aside, Turkish plays and modern Turkish culture is very liberal. It suits the western-oriented liberals in Pakistan and they would welcome prevailing Turkish culture with open arms. As for the historical culture, if these plays have...

    Egypt is officially the first customer of the Russian fighter Su-35 in the Middle East and Africa

    Mismanaged by who? Except for a brief democratic period Egypt has continuously been governed by its military. Egypt's economy has for a long time been controlled and run by its military. Even during that brief democratic period, the Egyptian military does not appear to have surrendered its...

    Egypt is officially the first customer of the Russian fighter Su-35 in the Middle East and Africa

    That contract, from what I know, did not take place. Egypt seemed interested in MiG-35 but ended up going for MiG-29.
