Pakistan bars low-flying Indian commercial aircrafts over Lahore airspace

[Kabira]

NEW DELHI (Web Desk) - Pakistan has barred low-level over-flying by Indian commercial airliners over almost its entire airspace, the Indian media reported on Sunday.

A note to airmen (NOTAM) issued by Pakistani aviation authorities informed that all flights have been prohibited from flying below 29,000 feet in Lahore during the month of October.

Pakistan had earlier barred overflying below 33,000 feet in the Karachi airspace.

After this move, Indian flights will have to opt for longer and safer routes which can delay flights.

Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) is the only airline that operates between India and Pakistan, but Indian flights to the Gulf, Far East, Middle East and Europe often fly over the neighbouring country.

Overflights generally fly more than 20000 feet. Cruise altitude depending upon airline varies btw 25000-35000 feet. No Stinger cant take out any ac at that height.... MH17 was taken down by a SAM.

Lol. Rajaraja Chola is a famous king of Tamil Chola Dynasty which dominated South Indian and South East Asian countries for nearly 2 centuries..

Why would Indian commercial jetliners be at a lower altitude ? My basic understanding is that within 50-100 miles of take off every commercial jetliner I flew hit 35000 feet

My friend Stringer Missiles have an effective range of 27,000 feet

for some reason I thought it was 10,000 feet
you are right

Cholan is Tamil dynasty
If my history is right Rajaraja Cholan was the most famous king of that dynasty

Bro, shoulder mounted SAMs have limited range and altitude. They can target low flying objects. However Airliners fly at much higher altitudes and well out the range of the such missiles.

We fly over Indian only 3% of flights what Indian airlines flying over Pakistan, we don't need their airspace they will be in loss ban all Pak airspace for Na Pak flights.
