Samad Ali Changezi

Samad Ali Changezi was a Flight lieutenant in Pakistan Air Force who fought in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971.

The first confirmed loss was that of Wing Commander Mervyn Middlecoat over the Gulf of Kutch on 12–13 December 1971.

Changezi, flying a Starfighter on loan from Jordan, was the second confirmed F-104 loss, when he was shot down by IAF MiG-21FLs of No.

The IAF also claimed two additional PAF Starfighter kills that same day, one of which was the aircraft flown by Changezi's wingman, Squadron Leader Rashid Bhatti; the PAF claimed he returned without damage to Masroor.
