Fighter pilot held for wrong parking

[tvsram1992]

Why are you on the side of the pilot? He is clearly an arrogant prat who should adhere to the rule of law of the land he has sworn an oath to. Just because he is a fighter pilot or any other officer does not mean they have special rules just for them. He clearly created a security risk- you can't leave a car unattended in a no-parking zone in most modern airports (for obvious reasons) and then when asked to produce his ID he didn't so how is the CISF meant to respond? They don't know this man, they don't know he is a "good guy". It seems the CISF acted in a very professional manner in all ranks from the lowly constable who, no doubt, had to put with a tirade of anger directed at him from this officer to the senior ranks who sided with his men's judgment and followed correct procedure. The CISF's job is the security of the airport, nothing else and as such they acted superbly. O would have thought that an IAF officer who is undoubtedly up to date on threat scenarios, would have appreciated the situation he had created. But,alas, there are always going to be arrogant and foolish people in every walk of life whether they are in the armed forces or not.


And @tvsraam you said fighter pilots' view would be "we are risking our lives for our country and this is the wait they treat us" well what about the CISF personell who risk THEIR lives EVERYDAY for the protection of vital national interests and get MUCH, MUCH less praise or attention than "flyboys" and this is how they get treated?


I wouldn't be surprised if this pilot has had running ins like this in the past within IAF and outside because that just seems to be how he is. And from what I have seen most of the IAF pilots seem very polite and courteous but with subtle arrogance (a needed trait in their profession) so I can't imagine he will avoid a very serious talking to after this outrageous incident.




+ I hope CISF give the same treatment to any jumped-up, no good politician who tries this $hit in the future.

If one CISF constable hurts that doesnt effect others where as if action is taken on IAF pilot that would be a serious consequence. Though every one is equal in democracy rare military personnel should be preferred. Remember iam not speaking about politicians , special HR's should be given such freedom.
You know how important fighter pilots are though both risk their lives.

Come on man, just because this guy was a fighter pilot does not mean he is above the law (which has been proven in this incident!) there is such a thing as human decency and this guy didn't show any.


And your point about him being more important because he is a fighter pilot is BS. All members of the armed forces are as important as others- you are only as strong as your weaskest link, a CISF constable being negligent at his job could have disatourous consequences in itself- the CISF protects the country's most vital interests (nuclear power plants/ airports/metros/ ISRO/IIR/Infoys/HAL/DRDO etc). I wluldnt continue down this line of argument if I were you.

Better suggestion has been given by areesh
If punishment have been given, the other pilots would be angry and we have lack of pilots.

The problem to me is more the lack of military professionalism. He is an officer and expected to set an example. And if the other pilots have a problem with his treatment it signals a more serious problem within the officer corps.

No its not BS , fighter pilots are preferred. He didnt threw his hand on cisf man nah...
By the way Pilots provide security for the whole nation preventing from external air attacks.

Good going.. no one is above the law.. wish the same could be applied to Pakistan.

Nothing is perfect there are loops and holes in every system , if they have followed one there would be flaws in many others same is the case with Pakistan there are perfections in some while totally other way round in many . By the way the above example is from armed forces and we don't need to follow much when it comes to military rules and laws because laws within our armed forces are strict enough to make the followers abide it.

Few cadets were refrained from flying in PAF and punished just for making the video of their rooms that too in fun while ago infact the story was on this forum and separate thread was opened for that .

If anything we need to follow is , we should in civil bodies and not in a body which is already one of the strictly law abiding body within itself

That doesnt mean he can do what ever he likes.... There is chain of command in military- this guy is simply showing his juniors and fellow officers a bad example. Providing security to the whole nation is a honor not a qualification to be arrogant.

He is rude thats it . he didnt attack security . If so i would not had supported him.

 

[Zabaniyah]

He can be forced to fly Mig21 as a punishment for next 6 months.

Maybe he was already flying a MiG-21 Probably the source of his frustration

 

[PlanetWarrior]

The guy is a jerk and undeserving of being regarded as an officer. He should be charged and then booted out of the airforce. There being a shortage of pilots is no justification for placing military or airforce officers on a God like pedestal. With attitudes like these it is no wonder that the military wouldn't consider staging a coup and wrecking India to the extent of one of our neighbours who we consistently mock for regarding their military as a God like institute. In a democracy idiots of the sort of this officer should be banished to cleaning toilets

Mig21 BIS is one of the best fighter still . Only 4 crashes in past few years . The problem why Mig21s are nightmare is lack of digitalization

 

[Zabaniyah]

It was certainly arrogant behavior.

I think the pilot should have been suspended, along with a harsh scolding from his superiors.

Still, it's very old. They should have been replaced a long time ago.

He nearly caused a bomb scare. Thats reason enough for me to give him a good thrashing.

He certainly did not posses the OLQ(Officer Like Quality) during this time. Being Rude and Adament until getting arrested is utter foolishness. He should have moved the car to the appropriate parking lane when the CISF officer came to the spot.
what an a-hole?

Well dont know about the general over all cases, but my family members who are in the Army get challaned and fined alot, for these kind of small infractions. The MP is also very strict. But yeah, the trend is that most people think as if the are superior to the law.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Big deal in Pakistan even a general gets fined for over speeding etc...
