Overcoming nature’s huge challenge
Summer operations are always considered more hazardous than those in winter, because of reduced engine power that is available to the pilot. Perhaps the analogy of driving a car whose engine is ‘tuned’ for driving in the plains and then is taken up into the hills, will illustrate the point being made about the loss of power. Then there are numerous crevasses which criss-cross one’s route and from where the chances of rescue are remote should a helicopter crash into one of them (see ‘The Chopper in a crevasse’ photo). In the winter however, the situation is very different. The engine performs much better, and the helipad sizes seem to be larger, because the amount of snow has increased and had risen to the level of the helipad; even the crevasses disappear…This then is what our intrepid soldiers and airmen are confronted with on the Siachen glacier. No amount of praise is enough and no paeans adequate to tell of their heroic deeds and acts of heroism.”
In later years, the Army also acquired the Cheetahs and Army Aviation pilots, along with their IAF colleagues continue to serve at Siachen against all weather odds, sustaining the deployment of Indian Army troops throughout the year.
