Thank you Faramarz HAMVATAN and rahgozar. Thanks for sharing the info and history. Very interesting. You do not have to be pro or against shah to enjoy reading these interesting stories. The women in Imperial Airforce I did not know about. Wow!! Also has no idea about F-16s. I know we ordered some AWAKS but never delivered and instead sold to Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Women in the IIAFBefore the Arabs invading Iran in the name of Islam and change Iranian Zoroastrian religion, Women played a major role in society.
Iran had Queens such as Pourandoukht and Azarmidoukht. one of the Commanders of Persian Navy was Artemis Iranian Women also were in charge in various levels of Armed Forces. After the Arab’s invasion (around 600 AD) until early 1930 for almost 1400 Years Iraniain women due to Islamic regulations did not have a significant role in society. During Pahlavi era (1930 -1979) Women became more and more involved in Iran. As early as 1933 (1312) Mrs. Marzieh Arfaee (Doctor) joined the Armed forces with the rank of Capt. and she became the first Woman with the rank of General in the Iranian military. In 1935 (1314) Mrs. Ozra Asgar Gilani was the first woman in Imperial Iranian Air Force. In 1939 (1318) a group of 9 women were enrolled in pilot training program in Iran and Mrs. Effat Tejaratchi became the first Woman to be given pilot license, (trained with Tiger Mouth).

F16 Drawing of IIAF F-16A over YazdIIAF purchases 160 F-16A on October 27th 1976 with follow up order of additional 140, A total of 300 aircraft. Parts and maintenance equipment has arrived in Iran as early as 1978 and ground personnel had been given training, (Ground support equipment was later sold to Pakistan). However, new Government cancelled the order in 1979 before the schedule arrival of the first two F-16, later this cancellation effected the unit cost of each aircraft to a much higher price tag. But General Dynamics found a new buyer for Iranian F-16’s, which was Israel’s air force.

Comments: HAMVATAN aziz, I got this from a son of a militay (a friend); He was basically saying that just REX of Abadan, Just like death of Mostafa Khomeni or Shariati, opposition of then always blamed the Shah. And we know in all 3 they were proven to be incoreect. He did say Gharabaghi sold his soul.
here is what his dad said:
من با دو نفر از تيمسارها كه در انروز انجا بودند صحبت كردم بنا به شهادت ان دو تيمسار ( تيمسار مينوسپهر و تيمسار خرمى ) اين فقط بك سانحه بود و بسً خبچ توطئه اى دو كار نبود. تيم كابت جديد بود و تيمسار خاتم به ابن كابت مسلط نبودند. دو سه پرواز هم انجام دادند. موقع نهار كه شد تيمسار خاتم كه هارنس و لباس را پوشيده بودند گفتند تا شما شروع كنيد من يكبار ديگر ميروم.اينبار بلافاصله پس از رها كردن طناب كه به قايق وصل است يك باد شديد بين دو سمت درياچه كايت را محكم به ديواره كوه مقابل ميكوبد و تيمسار در دم جان ميسپارد. هر كس كه كايت را ديده باشد و كوچكترين اشنايى با كابت داشته باشد ميداند كه هيچ دستكارى نميتوان كرد كه كايت دو يا سه پرواز كند و بعد در پرواز چهارم بخورد به كوه. ولى ما عاشق شايعه سأزى هستيم و مرگ هر كس را به خاندان سلطنت دوست داريم مرتبط كنيم. تيمسار مينوسپهر حتى در بك مصاحبه را ديويى با اقاى حسين مهرى در راديو صداى ايران به روشنى اين سانحه را تشريح كردند. مشروح سانحه همراه با عكسهاى رنگى از لحظه به لحظه ابن حادثه دلخراش در سايت نيروى هوايى شاهنشاهى ( www.iiaf.net   نوشته شده است.

Comments: Zereshk did u see bAgh zereshk I posted a while ago? That was for u. U can find all the zereshk u want there.
I do agree with both of them. Players in Iran are overpaid. The quality of most do not justify the money. It is all based on non meritorious considerations.

Comments: Very funny! Taremi & Adel want players in Iran to transfer on a slave wage to Portugal instead of playing in Iran for more money!

Comments: Hamvatan, great memories. Thank you for sharing with us. One question though, I was surprised to read that you think Shah got rid of those people. Were they not among the most loyal Shah followers? I do not know myself but have heard this from many others. They believe that Savak assassinated them through instructions from CIA. Otherwise they were going to stage a coup and bring Shah back.
There are lots of rumors about this. Can't wait for the 50 year anniversary when CIA records r released. I hope Stephen Kinzley writes another book based on those records.
