Re: Chacko Joseph's Corner

Hi Chacko,
Agreed about your case but I still don't see why do you have to watermark your name on GoI copyright material which is free for public use.Put in something on the top that says frontierindia via MoD DPR or something.

Re: Chacko Joseph's Corner

Chacko-Nice initiative.

However, why are you watermarking MoD DPR released pics with your url across the centre?
Comes across as unprofessional.

Re: Pakistan arms sales, ops, doctrine, etc

So, we seem to be making quitee a few assumptions here--

1) TSPN will be trusteed by GHQ with nukes

2) The P-3s will actually be able to carry the payload

3) What about top cover for a mission like this?

SOPs for P-3s call for solo flights--a radar picks one up with a escort package-- what next?
