The Indian Air Force carried out a full-dress rehearsal at the Hindon Air Base in Ghaziabad on Wednesday for the 89th anniversary of IAF on October 8.
“A scintillating air display by various aircraft will be the hallmark of the Air Force Day Parade-cum-investiture Ceremony at Air Force Station Hindon (Ghaziabad),” said a defence release by the Defence Ministry.

The flypast would include heritage aircraft, modern transport aircraft and frontline fighter aircraft. The ceremony will conclude at 10:52 am with the spellbinding aerobatic display,” the release added.
