I am deeply sorrowed not for F-16, but on a loss of extremely talented pilot. He must be special as flying F 16 is not an ordinary pilot job. May Allah bless him....ameen.

I just heard on ARY NEWS that it’s F-16. I think he tried to save F-16 till a last moment that’s why he couldn't ejected.

this sad incident reminds me of a chinese pilot who sacrificed his life to save civilians，the best pilots won't give up trying till the last moment,they are the true heroes.

The aircraft was F-16A; pilot was Squadron Leader Saud who was flying a routine night strike sortie. Aircraft was declared overdue as it did not recover back at the time it was supposed to. Later on wreckage was found close to Nurpur with pilot still strapped to seat. Saud received fatal injuries due to impact ….God bless his soul and he may RIP.

How events unfolded, it is assumed that Saud suffered from night disorientation. But it is still speculation and further detailed inquiry will tell that what and how it happened. This crash brings total PAFs F-16 losses to 9. Last viper to go down was in 1994 when it suffered a bird hit just after take off and the pilot ejected.

AoA Guys,

This is very sad news that we have lost pilot in jet crash near Sargodha.

Today I read another news in "nawaiwaqt" news paper that PAF plan crashed near khushaab and pilot was safe.

"nawaiwaqt" is one of Pakistan's respected and reputed newspaper.

I am quoting reference

Look at the left bottom of "Gillani and Manmohan photo", its clearly written that pilot was safe.

I just had a long talk with Paarach, about a min ago and got the details its really sad. God bless the Kid.

It was 11:00 pm, I saw almost 10 F-16s took off. The first 9 took off in brief intervals but the last one took off rather late probably at 11:25 pm. It was around 12:45 pm I saw breaking news of the crash. I phoned PAF Hospital got confirmed about the sad demise of S/L Saud, may his soul rest in peace......
