Ghar Wapsi For AAP - DILLI CHALO

I don't know from where to start this article about the successful journey of Aam Aadmi Party . This will take a lot of time to start from the beginning ,  but let me from the time when Kejriwal lost elections against Modi :

"After Lok Sabha Elections , there was a time when Arvind Kejriwal used to visit people in Delhi and they used to close the doors for him .Even apartment guards used to taunt him with his Varanasi loss.
We have seen worst possible days for kejriwal as you can see the picture below.

Any common man could have broken by such period . But , kejriwal stood up , faced all hardships , lifted the party with support of selfless leaders and volunteers and today's achievement is the result of all the hard work he and others have been doing from last 8 months"
There were some lines from Mahatma Gandhi which r coming in my mind right now :

First they ignore you,

then they ridicule you,

then they fight you,

and then you win. 

From morning I m trying to believe that Arvind Kejriwal  hypnotized voters to win.. I mean 67 seats is not a joke.And specially when the margins on many seats between AAP and BJP is not even in few thousands..but 25-40 thousands..Crazy!

And most funny thing which I have seen today is that Congress jokers r mocking Modi & BJP. It's like a school drop out mocking MIT PhD whose 1 experiment failed. LOL!

Jokes apart , but seriously  Aam Aadmi Party's "H"s 

-Humility 

-Honesty 

-Hardwork 

-Heartfelt dedication 

-Hours of commitment
-Honour & Pride in serving India                                                         

 worked out but still the biggest challenge for AAP is to fight against DIRTY TRICK DEPARTMENTS of BJP/INC. Lets see in future How Kejriwal is going to work for that.

How Indian Defense Pilots get Trained ??? ( PART 1 )

Many people confuse with the training given to Civil Airline Pilots and the Defense Pilots . But let me clear it in 2nd line of my article that never try to compare these two . There is not a single thing common in both except that they fly planes. So , let me start with the civil pilots who get trained by the Private establishments like IGRUA in UP. They first give 200 hours of flying experience on Simulator and then start with actual flying .
Talking about Defense Pilots , let me give u basic idea that all four forces r having there separate Pilots , Air Force , Indian Navy, Indian Army and Coast guards. But because of the reason that number of pilot in Army Coast guard and Navy r less compared to Indian Air Force ,  all Pilots get trained for Basic Flying in Air Force establishments and Further training is done in specific establishments of Navy and Air force.
For training , HAL-built HPT-32 Deepak primary trainers were used earlier.But they were grounded in 2009 following a spate of crashes and over 100 incidents of engine failures. Pilatus PC-7 Mk 2 have replaced HAL-built HPT-32 Deepak. India is already taking delivery of PC-7 Mk 2 aircraft from Pilatus under a contract for 75 such aircraft signed in 2012.

But , there is a need for 181 Basic Trainer Aircraft   for the Stage I flying training for the Indian Air Force . So, IAF has decided to “urgently” buy 106 PC-7 Mk 2 Basic Trainer Aircraft (BTA) from Pilatus, pulling the plug yet again on state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), which is also making an aircraft for training junior pilots.

The BTAs (Basic Trainer Aircrafts) will be acquired from the Swiss company under the “Buy & Make (Indian)” category, in accordance with India’s defense procurement policy. A Request for Information (RFI) calls for delivery of aircraft and equipment to begin by 2015-16, with all 106 PC-7 Mk2’s to be delivered by 2020-21.

Under the “Buy & Make (Indian)” category, Pilatus will have to form a joint venture or establish a production arrangement with an Indian company to execute the contract. So , The Indian government desires a local vendor or company to form a joint venture or establish a production arrangement with Pilatus to “supply a certain number of PC-7 Mk. 2 aircraft in flyaway condition as the ‘buy’ portion, followed by licensed production/indigenous manufacture in India under the ‘make’ portion,”

Since the aircraft is to be license-produced in India, it must have a minimum of 50% indigenous content on a cost basis (for a specified list of items). A minimum of 30% indigenous Indian content for applicable items also is required. However, no minimum indigenous content is needed for the “buy” portion of the contract.

The decision to buy BTA from Pilatus could severely affect HAL’s plans for its Hindustan Turbo Trainer 40 (HTT-40). The IAF and HAL have been debating the future of the turbo trainer for over two years now, but a decision on any forward movement for the project came to the fore when former IAF Chief Air Chief Marshal N.A.K. Browne wrote to Defense Minister A.K. Antony urging a foreclosure of the HTT-40 program to enable the import of 106 more PC-7 Mk. 2 trainers.

The ministry of defense had cleared an IAF request in 2009 to buy 181 BTAs, 75 of which would be procured from an international vendor with the remaining to be designed and developed by HAL. India signed a deal in May 2012 worth about $650 million for 75 Pilatus aircraft. So far, the Swiss company has delivered about 20 aircraft and the IAF, which has suffered from a severe shortage of modern trainers, has commenced training with the PC-7 Mk 2.

THE FIRST FLIGHT

What a day it was. After a wait of 1 and half year after my selection to Naval aviation , the day finally came , 23rd Jan 2015 it was. So , I got my helmet , gloves , thighpad and some more stuff that we have to carry before any flight. Me and my instructor moved towards Aircraft . He was briefing me about the stuff we were going to perform during flight like Take off , aerobatics , sector establishment etc. I could barely listen to what he was saying , I was more excited about the first flight. I opened the canopy , did some external checks and We entered the aircraft. After full system check of half an hour , I finally released the brakes and we started moving towards the Runway. At runway , I took permission to take-off and here I was airborne in next 10 seconds. We entered the alloted sector and were flying at 14000 feet. Sir was showing me the area around Hydrabad city , Narsapur , Jogipet , Nizam Sagar  , Octopus lake and many more ground feature that we use for checking our orientation during any manouvre .

 There was a time when Instructor inverted the plane and I was looking over head to see the Outer Ring Road Hydrabad and Trucks , buses , cars were passing from there. In last 10-15 min. , sir showed me some aerobatics like Roll , Loop , Spin , Stall , Barrel roll , Roll over the top . I could see on the front screen , we acheived +4g in manouvres. After 1 hour of flight we landed and taxied out in Dispersal. We came out of the Aircraft like the way I have seen in photographs and movies "IN FLYING CLOTHES ,HELMET ON LEFT SIDE , MOVING WITH FULL CONFIDENCE WITH AVITORS ON "  What a memorable day it was. Whatever time u spent in air during your whole career but the first time is always special.

My training is going on these days and I already completed First phase of flying. Everyday we fly for 1 hour but a lot of preparation is needed before each flight because our own life is on stake. But seriously best Profession in world.

"Once You Have Tasted Flight ,You Will Forever Walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards , for there you have been and there you always long to return "
