Ejecting would mean the loss of the aircraft, and in many cases people rather die trying to save it if they think they can, than suffer the consequences of if they eject.
Dude, come on. What are you saying?
He's saying it's better to die trying to save the plane than to eject and be punished for the loss.
It beggars belief that they can't even be solemn after such a serious accident and went straight to engagement farming.
In India Abhinandan Varthaman who ejected was put on permanent leave after ejecting, even after all the jingoism they said about him. Many pilots who do eject in India obviously don't get talked about, and most probably fired. As we know about Indian culture if the military fired them, their family might be discriminated against, caste does not forgive. An example of them not wanting to eject is when an Indian pilot flew their Rafale after getting hit back to base even though it was "effectively unflyable".
It's sad that the Indian media cannot even be respectful to their own pilots who lay down their life for their country.
