Air crashes do not take place due to inexperience of pilots, Minister of State for Defence M M Pallam Raju said here, noting that most of planes lost were MiGs which were ageing rapidly and have maintenance issues.
“It is not inexperience of pilots,” he told reporters here on being asked to comment on Air Chief N A K Browne’s recent statement that inexperience of pilots was the main reason behind the increasing number of crashes in the IAF.
