Besides, the jet that crashed was a Mirage, not an F-7.
@Khan Bhai: PAF doesn't need to change 'any' culture but comments like yours need to be moderatied, unlike hundereds of others that don't make the 'final cut'. Pathetic job done by the moderators.
Honestly, these young pilots have too much "TOP GUN" in them and little regards for safety. PAF needs to change its culture.
Indeed to God we all belong and to him we are to return. May Allah reward the deceased for his sacrifice for the defense of our country. Ameen
