Wow, from W/C to Gp. Cpt to Air Cdre, in little over three years. Can you also update regarding the Sukhoi Slayer, there was much apprehension about his career progression following the events of 27th Feb....
 
In army most career officers skip the rank of colonel and jump straight from lt col to brigadier; called one step Brigadier (IIRC). Might be the case in PAF as well.
Possible, but I remember from another thread him being already promoted to Gp. Cpt., in 2021.

Edit: Also OP mentions his previous rank. (Baghal mei bacha, sheher mei dhindora 😁😄)

PAF officers don't skip that rank.

Let him be wing commander for some time please.

Yes in Pak Army usually if you are made full Colonel that means 80% chances that is where you end your career.

In PAF, I have never seen anyone skip a rank.

Only case is ACM Anwar Shamim who was fast tracked to become ACM from Air Cdr. I believe in Zia's time due to perceived issues with late 70s PAF senior leadership.
