Chopper pilot may be IAF chief for 1st time
For the first time since its inception in 1932, the Indian Air Force might get a helicopter pilot as its chief.
Fali Homi Major could replace S P Tyagi in March 2007. While they are no rules barring helicopter pilots from commanding the Air Force, there are rules at the Western Air Command and South Western Air Command that its commander must be a fighter pilot.
