Nigeria Air Force plane crash

Who is still Alpha Jet in this age of Christ? APC are cursed. You have flying coffins and you asked someone's son to fly them just to entertain one ancestor from Sudan.

Sacrificing beautiful Nigerian souls for a Sudanese. APC are Evil!

wirelex:
DaV8King how can you say NAF has never done this kind of parade before. If you dont know why not ask.

Bros maybe I mis used English.

But we can agree that NAF has not had aerial parades at the intensity of drill/number of aircraft they are/were planning to use this time round.

I live in Abuja and have regularly seen up to 20 air frames (jets, C130 and choppers) practicing at the same time over the last 2 to 3 weeks.

This is Nigeria
Every thing is firebrigde
approach
Learning to crisscross
With dilapidated plan.

just sad DAT 1 of d pilot didn't survive

GavelSlam:


IBB your hero had 162 officers killed in 1992.

Your other hero GEJ, was in power when his NSA died in a chopper disaster.

In this case, it's been reported the pilots ejected.

Your body odour is acrid.

Lunatic u heard me say the pilots died? Oponu of life. Take your frustrated life and go and hug that cowbender.

My guess is that it's either the two jets are Alpha Jets or Albatrosses (I doubt if there are enough Chengdu F7Nis to spare, especially because of the NE commitment), but the point is that both of these airframes are old and outdated. Most decent airforces have retired them.

These airframes are tired. Maintenance is also an issue. Ťhis is going to affect the airforce someway, somehow - even if the jets were not drawn from the combat pool engaged in the NE theatre.

We have not even talked about the possible pilot fatality!

It's a mess however way you want to spin it.

It's a pair of F-7s that went down bro.

1 FT-7 (Trainer) and 1 F-7Ni.

Terrible it had to cost a life, but I believe it will be the beginning of the end for the F-7 aka widow-maker in NAF service.

The trainer that crashed is the last one in Nigerian spec/service.

And the aircraft type is fully out of production now.

How do you develop new pilots without trainer aircraft?
