Sometime ago, a member @PAR 5, on the occasion of a previous crash, allegedly blew the whistle that Army Aviation had taken the brunt of economic crunch and was facing serious issues. He allegedly left after complaining of being harassed for "blowing the whistle". I wonder how much truth was in his claims.

Horrible. Terrible news!!!! I just hope and pray the cause is not what I am dreading.
Also the platform is not what I would have expected such a VVIP to be in, especially for such a long journey.
 
اللہ پاک اُنکی حفاظت کرے

دیکھو فوج پر ذرا سی مشکل ائی اور قوم ساتھ کھڑی ہو گئی
اور قوم پچھلے چار مہینے سے ذلیل ہو رہی لیکن فوج کو کوئی پرواہ نہیں

But Écureuil is built for the unforgiving Siachen conditions, it would be odd if it breaks down due to climate.
 
When will our TV channels ever learn some ethics in times like these?

Har koi apni chawwlain mar raha hai is time.

One was saying the heli left Quetta, another said that it was going to Quetta...ignorance unlimited.
