Just want to ask... don't trainer aircraft have ejection seats?

Hmmm, the perils of Flying. No air force is exempt from stuff like this. Based on an eye witness comment ( In a previous thread on Nairaland) who stated that de engine stalled when the pilot attempted a barrel roll at low altitude, one can easily attribute pilot error as the major factor responsible for the mishap. Guess he might have misjudged his altimeter reading. All the same, let's wait for the official results from the AIB. May their souls RIP.

The super mushak trainer doesn't come equipped with ejection seats, it's used for basic or elementary flying ( first time pilot training) but the Jet trainers usually come with ejection seats since they fly at high speeds, and such can easily deploy when ejection is necessary.

Is it that Nigeria is so terrible that we don't have the intelligence to conduct thorough investigations on the cause of persistent crash? Or some people are behind all these and not allowing investigations?

The people ordering investigation are the same people cutting corners when they procure maintenance parts and equipment to make a quick buck or two.

I guess the Nigerian airforce then went with a cheaper trainer(the mushak) to save money cos they are suppose to know better how the nature of their job is and should have gotten a trainer with ejection seats...just my thoughts though

Basic trainers don't come equipped with ejection seats, be it Super Mushak, Bull dog, Cessna or Diamond series, cos they're Turbo propeller driven engines. They're used mostly for ab initio or initial pilot training. It is when u advance from basic training to maybe fighter training that u use jet engine trainers like Alpha, T-38 talon, Aero L-39 or Yak - 130. Those are the ones that come equipped with ejection seats. The ejection seat has a rocket attached underneath, once eject sequence is activated, the canopy or roof of the cockpit breaks off/ detaches from the aircraft at high speed and the rocket underneath the seat detonates, it is this explosion that propels the the pilot together with the seat out of the plane before the parachute deploys. The mechanism only works with fast moving jet planes and not the basic trainer types because they're relatively slow and secondly the seating arrangement of instructor pilot n student pilot seating side by side ( in tandem) doesn't make the ejection seat to be feasible.

Voice mail. Which investigation? What is the feedback on the airplane that crashed killing 11 Officers last year including the former chief of army staff? Where is the report? Judgment day will be hot.

Whenever we talk about a pilot who has been killed in a flying accident, we should all keep one thing in mind. He called upon the sum of all his knowledge and made a judgment. He believed it so strongly that he knowingly bet his life on it. That his judgment was faulty was a tragedy, not stupidity. Every inspector, supervisor, and contemporary who ever spoke to him had an opportunity to influence his judgment, so a little of all of us goes with every pilot we lose
