Back in the year 1989, a leading newspaper published a sensational story about a Hangar Collapse in Gwalior and how that resulted in half a dozen Mirage 2000 fighters being badly damaged or written off. The story created a furor and the Ministry of Defence was forced to issue a rejoinder discreditng the news report. Gp Capt Noel A Moitra 12931 F(P) VM was at Gwalior at that time. For the first time in thirty years, he writes about the 'incident' in detail.
