PAF aircraft crashes in Attock during routine training, pilot ejects safely
A Pakistan Air Force (PAF) aircraft crashed near Pindigheb, Attock, on Tuesday, the air force said in a statement.
The statement said that the incident happened during a routine training mission, adding that no loss of life was reported.
"The pilot ejected safely. No loss of life or property has been reported on ground," it added.
The PAF said that a board of inquiry has been ordered to investigate the cause of the crash which is the fifth such incident since the start of this year.
In March, a PAF F-16 aircraft crashed near Shakarparian in Islamabad during rehearsals for the March 23 parade. Wing Commander Nauman Akram was martyred in the crash.
A PAF trainer aircraft crashed on February 12 during a routine training mission near Takht Bhai in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Mardan district. It was the third PAF training aircraft to have crashed while on a routine training mission in less than two months.
In the same month, a PAF Mirage aircraft, which was also on a routine operational training mission, had crashed near the Lahore-Multan Motorway. Pilots in both cases had ejected safely.
Earlier in January, a PAF aircraft had crashed while on a training mission near Mianwali. Both pilots – Squadron Leader Haris bin Khalid and Flying Officer Ibaadur Rehman – aboard the PAF FT-7 aircraft had lost their lives in the crash.

There was nothing to hide. You can see pictures and identify the wreckage. Only 3 jf-17s destroyed since 2005. It's not a worry. Today we have 150+ and new will have aesa and all old jets will be fitted with aesa as well so I call it revolution. This project has helped our country. India is rival but paf will continue to dominate skies. We know what we are doing and that's important. We love our machines.
Nothing to hide but we never acknowledge unless it was widely reported!.
Its more like 5-6 JF-17 crashes. Covering up is a national sport there. To crash you need to clock respectable flying hours. It does not even touch 100 hr per year. The engine is from 80's without improvement, not even FADEC !.
At least it hit the ground due to bird or mechanical issues unlike India where amraam becomes a love. Saw all media hype for new indian female fighter of rafale. You know what she will think when flying this jet! She will think about ejection. That's reality.
Do you have replies to the points made by the member? Crash cover-up, flying hours, or engine reliability? You don't have to reply if you are not adding any value to the discussion.
This is not a trash talk contest. You can do that on the green forum.
Read him again.he asked for explanation. If there is no cover up, it means no cover up. Green forum is much better. On green forum, we can't imagine victories unlike here. Can you see his sentence of covering up like a national sport? Is this not inflammatory? Don't expect me to follow rules Everytime. You always ask me to follow rules but not with these indian members.
And where is the explanation?
Cover up on things related to the military is normal in Pakistan. From Zia-ul-Haq's death to Kargil. Covering up some crash is nothing!. We have seen it before in the case of F-16s.
If you think it inflammatory or bait then don't reply. Trolling replies will only cut shot your time here.
Covering up is indeed not your national sport. It's in your blood. There are some 3-4 running threads on PA casualties in KPK, Balochistan, LoC, etc as well as a thread on the resurgence of the TTP all well documented with proof. How many deaths have the ISPR acknowledged? Last time you dodged the question by acting funny & were banned for a month. Feel free to continue in the same vein.
6 crashes this year pretty big for a small air force like PAF. whenever you take out aircraft from storage it crashes,this is your worth. Now repeat after me inshallah boys ejaculated well.
