In 1971 war, my father was stationed in Peshawar. Our home was opposite (across Khyber Road) PAF hangar.
I am witness to the first Indian air raid on PAF base Peshawar.
IMO Indian pilots were not trained very well, rather than going for formation of 4 F-86's on ground armed and were preparing for takeoff, they started strafing on hangar and hence provided the opportunity to PAF pilots to takeoff and later shot them down.
If those Indian who are now making funny comments, had seen the ability of their pilots, most probably they had committed suicide at that time.
