kakatiya Posted November 21 Author Report Posted November 21 Condolences for the pilot. Poor leadership is going on with IAF and HAL. They are sabotaging themselves delays upon delays, news of manufacturing defects by HAL, lacking maintenance by IAF. At this point they just need to shut shop. Like I said with the number of crashes in the past decade they better shut shop. All they are doing is killing our pilots. 104 crashes in the past decade, on an average 9 pilots die every year. No accountability or reality check. This will also impact exports of tejas. Chapter closed Quote
