The Indian Air Force would ascertain the cause of the recent crash of an AN-32 aircraft in Arunachal Pradesh and take steps to ensure that such incidents do not recur, IAF chief BS Dhanoa said Saturday. Noting that there were procedures to make sure such accidents do not recur, he said, ".. need to review what happened and we don't have such an accident again." Deputy Commissioner of Siang District Rajeev Takuk had earlier said that the crash site was wedged inside a gorge in a thickly forested area. Earlier, the IAF chief also reviewed the Combined Graduation Parade at the Academy. A total of 152 flight cadets, including 24 women, graduated as Flying Officers of the IAF.
