The pilot, Captain Chirag Shashikant Doifode, and cadet Abhijeet Jundre were on board; no injuries were reported. The aircraft, registered VT-SEX, performed two rejected take-offs on Runway 29 and Runway 11 but could not stop fully, crossing the threshold by about 20 feet. Pune Rural SP Sandeep Singh Gill said the aircraft failed to come to a complete stop while taxiing. The Baramati airstrip witnessed a fatal crash in January 2026 when Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and four others died, and another trainer crash-landed in May with no casualties. ## Coverage - news.abplive.com - hindustantimes.com Tags: Baramati airstrip, Carver Aviation, Pune, runway incident, trainer aircraft Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/trainer-aircraft-skids-off-runway-at-baramati-airstrip-in-pune/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
