I cannot begin to explain the Captain's performance but it does appear that possibly being ex PIA there was some perceived 'status' issue where he did not need any help thank you.
It is the F/O's behaviour I find very strange - to allow yourself to be driven into a hill without attempting to stop it. Are all PAF pilots that 'weak'? I am pretty sure that no amount of derision, whiplashing, abuse, shouting at etc etc from a Captain would cause a British mil pilot to sit there and do very little. As I said, the IAF must be rubbing their hands with glee.
