Indian Pilot capturing video: My opinion about second pilot.

[Flash_Ninja]

As @Flash_Ninja re-iterated that there were 3, one probably landed in India or went missing. The other two got captured by Pak Army in the same vicinity.

Hmm, don't think so. For them to eject at same time, in the same location. Now I am not a Pilot, but I think fighter jets keep a reasonable distance from each other even when they are engaging. Unless, you are saying that the two aircraft slammed each other there won't be reason for all of them ejecting at same time at approx. same location.

if the other plane was a su-30 then its likely two pilots would have ejected from there too. If a Pakistani plane went down then there would be a 4th parachute which nobody saw

May be the 2nd one was a Pakistani pilot...

My guess...

Does it really matter now? You should be concerned about your wing commander but here you are trying to match. Really shows what are your priorities, you don't consider human life as something valuable do you?

The jet that crashed in IOK ..... the police official there is on video saying we recovered two bodies. Ask your AF how it feels to have lost two jets and three pilots, one of them proven alive and in custody of Pakistan ... their adversary. Just ask them and try telling them don't worry "May be may be we have downed a F16 and a Pakistani pilot ejected too" ..... that should be very encouraging to them and boost their moral .... hearing it from a common indian.

Maybe, he died of his injuries. [Claims of him being injured and in CMH] Deliberately trying not to make it public in order to avoid further escalation...or maybe to avoid the propaganda of "tourtured and killed" by Indians---that is what our neighbors did after 1999 Ajay Ahuja episode...

No, it's your wishful thinking.

India shot down nothing. It lost. It's M-2000s, Flankers and Bisons weren't enough to stop some Thunders and Roses from bombing it's country and taking out some aircraft.

Second one, a Pakistani pilot, taken to CMH (Military Hospital) by Pakistan Army, and DG ISPR didn't know by then that he was a Pakistani...

If Army was transporting that "Pakistani" pilot to CMH, the whole military command would have known immediately that a "Pakistani" had been shot down and was being transferred to CMH.

And we have ISPR (Inter Services Public Relations).. Our forces do not brief press by sending separate people.. ISPR is for all the three branches of military (PA, PAF & PN). In split seconds, PAF would have informed ISPR about the "Pakistani" MIA.. or KIA..

Remember, the press briefing happened when the second pilot was already in CMH.. after considerable time had passed..

=============================

When an airforce loses a planes, it does not accept the loss of pilot immediately.. Pilots are trained to survive for days in jungles, keep maps with them, and return back in a few days..

Indian Air force also did the same.. in a hope that the two pilots who ejected from a twin seat plane would come back. Initially, Indian air force didn't accept the loss of first pilot.. Indians were challenging all over social media that pilots do not have mustache, or Abhinandan was a fictional character, until his video wasn't released with identification..

I am sure, if the videos of Abhinandans arrest hadn't surfaced, neither Indian Air Force not ISPR would have accepted..

ISPR, while giving the statement of two pilots, thought initially that the second one's video will also surface by foolish mobs, there was no point in hiding it.. however, when he realized that no video surfaced, and Indian Air Force also said that all the pilots are accounted for (hoping that the other two pilots would either return or die), he backtracked from his statement.
