Why could Flying Officer Nirmal Singh not take off immediately?​

Answer 1

${\huge{\pink{\underline{\bold{AnsweR:-}}}}}$

Flying Officer Nirmal Singh could not take off at once because of the clouds of dust raised by another aircraft which had just taken off. By the time the runway was fit for take-off, no fewer than six enemy aircraft were overhead, nevertheless, in spite of the mortal danger of attempting to take off during an attack, and inspite of the odds against him. Flying Officer Sekhon took off and immediately engaged a pair of the attacking Sabres.

Answer 2

Flying officer is a junior commissioned rank in the Royal Air Force (RAF)and the air forces of many countries which have historical British influence. It is also sometimes used as the English translation of an equivalent rank in countries which have a non-English air force-specific rank structure. In these cases a flying officer usually ranks above pilot officer and immediately below flight lieutenant
