o42austino: stop talking what u dont know,no good military pilot will like to eject from his plane he will try everything within his power to land d plane successfully and remember in Airforce, once ur good with an Aircraft, ur name will be written on the aircraft as a dedication and respect to u so u will not eject from such plane but try to land d plane.

olrotimi: my friend, militry war planes can be captured. If the jet is shot at, it wld depend on the bravery of the pilot. Either he crashes the jet or he manoevers it to land with minimal damage. Both have their implications. Again, the jet operated over mountainous terrain,we believe it made manoevers between mountain peaks. Thats one of the most difficult regions to operate on, the pilot could easily loose GPS bearing.

iyobs7: One of Boko Haram Member in the Force, drove the jet to Boko Haram's hide out...

Marlboro1: Africa Online reports that the Alpha Jet (NAF 466) belonging to the Nigerian Air Force declared missing by the Defence Headquarters in its Adamawa State’s operations may have been sighted by residents before it crashed.
The plane was said to have crashed on Saturday at Gabun village near Gaanda, in Gombi Local Government of the state.
Local farmers in Gombi Local Government Area of the state yesterday claimed to have sighted an aircraft that crashed at a place near Gabun primary school.

The residents said they saw a ‘low-flying jumbo jet’ matching the description of the missing Alpha Jet after it disappeared on Friday.
Several residents of Hawul, a border town in Borno State, also said they saw an aircraft in military colours with green-red-stripes flying so low over the mountains as the plane’s doors were clearly visible.
The residents, who are predominantly farmers, claimed they were disturbed by the incredibly loud noise on Friday, with the plane travelling from north to south-east, towards Hawul– Gabun.
A witness was said to have noted that “I’ve never seen a jet flying so low over our mountains before. We’ve seen planes, but I’m sure that this was not one of those. I could even make out the doors on the plane clearly.

MilitaryMinded:

'Both have their implications' your said. Ok.
1) Jet crashes..means destroyed (useless to boko)
2) Pilot lands it with minimal damage...mind you minimal damage in an aircraft does NOT equate with minimal damage in a car. You can't just push an aircraft to the nearest mechanic for repair neither can u find aircraft spear parts in every nook and cranny. Tell me how the damaged aircraft can be captured?

Hero10001: Common niggah!
Didn't you read the DHq's statement about the missing jet?
Do you know the meaning of "Plane Hijack"?!
And who da Bleep told you that a lowly NAF plane can't be hijacked in the air?
I'm sure you know nothing about spies and hijackings.

eunisam: I don't like this type of news at all at all.I thought we just aquired 12 war jet,how come they didnt use them? Am so dissapointed!

olrotimi: my friend, minimal damage in a jet could be smthng lyk wing(s) off, tail off, belly crash/bruised, minor cracks etc which can be easily fixed within weeks considering the expertise we knw the BH to have already. We have seen their kind of weaponry, we have read reports(amnesty international) that these guys have military experts, engineers, doctors in their ranks. Tell me why they wldnt make the best off a minimally damaged jet?

lastpage:

....... and if YOU?PILOT cant "land it successfully", you will..... CRASH WITH IT, right?

I think BOKO HARAM-SUICIDE has become a STAPLE FOOD for some of you!

If Pilot is alive, he can always fly another useful mission, in another plane!

Him get family and it costs a lot of money and effort/time to train a fighter pilot!

BTW: l think our greatest problems are that of MOLES and SYMPATHISERS WITHIN OUR MILITARY, coupled with the most corrupt Govt.

streetzdreamz: lols,u funny ehn,dis aint a chopper dat can land almost anywhere, we talking bout a jet,n u saying if t crash landed d impact might b minimal?u said t urself ts a rough terrain,with obviously no wide,plain ground to serve as a tarmac,ts like a vehicle that loses ts brakes down a slope,wanna tell me d damage will b minimal?ion tink so man,a pilot will b lucky to b alive if atall his jet crash lands.

PerfectlyPerfect: Nairalanders, posting stu*paid comments without really understanding the post. fighter jets from different countries crash from time to time, not only in Nigeria. its barely two weeks since 2 US navy jets collided and exploded. dats more than 40million dollars gone.
an old Nigerian jet crashed and you guys are already crying wolf

BlackTechnology: Most likely true.

The military must do thorough investigation over the cause of the crash to know if

1) It was a deliberate mechanical fault and why didn't the pilot parachute out

2) the pilot was poisoned which could have killed him before his he thought of parachuting out of the jet

3) the pilot intentionally crashed the jet especially if he is alive.

4) if the jet was releasing smoke before it crashed which is one sign that it was shoot

5) the villagers who saw the jet's door, actually saw the pilot.


Sabotage must be thoroughly investigated.

Even the guys who serviced it 2months ago must be investigated.

BlackTechnology: Most likely true.
The military should also investigate you, Mr CID.The military must do thorough investigation over the cause of the crash to know if

gabriel212: They had gone to deliver the JET to boko haram or blow it delibrately.
useless poeple
pity this nation
