Flight Lieutenant Siddharth Singh, 26,
is a fighter pilot in the Indian Air Force. Posted to an elite Mig-29 squadron
in the north of India ,
Sid, as he’s known by his squadron mates, has been flying the aircraft for the
past three years. While, becoming a fighter pilot has been his childhood dream,
flying these complex aircrafts is more than just excitement and thrill – it is
also a responsibility and commitment to his country. Having passed out from the
National Defence Academy in Khadakwasla and then from the Air Force Academy in
Dundigal, Hyderabad, Sid has the same grit, determination and commitment to the
service and the nation, that every pilot has. And like every fighter pilot, Sid
also has a streak of flamboyance in him. He loves leather jackets, Ray Bans and
his Royal Enfield .
And it goes without saying that this dashing and debonair young man with brown
eyes, rugged features and dimpled smile is a great hit with women! But sorry
ladies, he already has a girl friend in the other corner of the country, who
keeps him up till the wee hours of the night, chatting on the phone.
