There is a concept of static discharge that applies, when the a/c is on ground. Plus, the fuel pump system & the internal plumbing needs to be modified, to provision for this. Hence, the uniqueness of this invention.

I've said this before. For me, the Naval LCA is the most beautiful fighter aircraft out there. Something about it's design and look, can't pinpoint what (iphone type addictive quality to it). Look long at this wonderful shot: http://gallery.tejas.gov.in/Gallery/Goa-Detachment-LCA-Navy-2016/i-5qSQmx...

b) Wilder idea: Would it be possible to detach the entire compartment with passengers in it and then attach it to the right train for onward journey ? It is not as "wild" as you believe it to be :). And this practice was very popular even years before. It is known as "slip coach"...

where is that view from ? I don't think its from the 360 EO all seeing eye. and what are those three wires doing in there ? Probably a cam fitted inside the forward flightdeck, close to the windscreen. There used to be a yellow contraption fitted just above the EO ball. Not sure if TD-3 still has i...

We desperately need more private Indian carriers to start Intl. ops. IndiGo, is the only one with enough cash to do it. But they seem to be completely ignoring the intl. market even over the long term. Indigo does fly international, albeit to few destinations. Have flown on the MAA-DXB & SIN-MA...

Both Moto G and Moto E have dual SIM capabilities but they require Micro-SIMs. Moto E has expandable memory slot but no front camera (a major drawback) And since these two are sold exclusively through Flipkart, I have my own reservations. So far, Galaxy S Duos 2 fits the bill. If there is a bigger p...

I heard that their after sales is not that good and that there are reliability issues.

Added later: a newbie pooch: one of the pics on the link above has INS Aditya next to a frigate (I think) with a pennant number F253. I can't find any references to this pennant anywhere on Wiki's active ships list (current frigates are number between 20-51), nor on the BR Navy page. Is it a decomm...

I believe I read somewhere that the pilot in question (maybe another incident?), waited for sometime underwater and then ejected. He was fortunate enough to escape the blades.

Two more visual indicators: 1) main landing gear doors ( absent on the Saras) 2) engine cowlings :- The P&W engines(on Saras) have a unique cowling shape near the intake. Notice the same on the Garrets on the E123. PS: that airfield bears close resemblance to the old one at Bangalore,Kerala with...
