My dad sources said I think its time.As one body recovered is beyond recognition but with stature of CDS.

IAF is indeed the weakest link

Indian Army update thread locked for few hours.

Do not post any comment regarding this incident on any other thread. Keep the information or your opinions consolidated at one place.

Are there SOPs during a helicopter crash with VVIP on board..? Like moving the CDS to the safest place in the Chopper, and some other stuff..?

Just saying
With a heli going down, ig every person would look to save himself/herself and family first

Sorry once again.The Area is pretty foggy and difficult to maneuver.

Normal at this time of the year.

Fog descends out of nowhere and you won't be able to see your hand if you hold it in front of your face.

Same in Kodaikanal and surrounding areas too.

Yea and I for a fact know that aviation rules generally always take weather reports into accounts.

To give you an example civilian flights are updated twice or thrice per day with weather reports double for VIP's.

In the case of VVIP's from political and military background the pilot's are briefed on a hourly basis and even a slight change in weather pattern can delay operations for hours.

NE is a good example for this where the air corridor is only open during certain hours per day and even then a slight shift in weather patterns immediately results in aircraft being grounded until further notice.

i belive my dad.

Even in the best case scenario, he will be out of service for a few weeks for recovery.

A temporary CDS will be required immediately considering continued cheeni aggression.

Nagaland botched operations few days ago and today CDS, an IA 4 Star General crashed in Chopper crash.

No conspiracy. Events not related.

Really sad turn of events this week.

Only India has these problems of mountain and fog or the rest of the world too??

I hope this month goes by quickly cuz it feels like the February of 2019 where everything related to Indian military was going wrong.

IAF again showing their good record.

Give chance to Army Aviation Corps.

Conspiracies as big as this (if that is the case) will never be revealed out in public domain.

Let us focus only on updates.

Sabotage, repairs, maintenance, BJP, Modi and NE can be discussed tomorrow.

Helicopter wing of IAF need to be dismantled & Assets need to be transferred to Army.
