This shows all aircraft involved in the fly-by and the arrivals/rehearsals preceding it. Usually, aircraft start to arrive and assemble two weeks in advance; both at Dhaka-Hazrat Shahjalal Intl/Bangabandhu AB, the military side of which was formerly known as Kurmitola, and at nearby Dhaka-Tejgaon/Bashar AB. Obvioulsy, most variety in the days leading up to the parade was and will be in the based MiG-29 and F-7 fraternity of 5, 8 and 35 squadron. The same applies to the Air Force helicopters and Army aircraft that are drafted daily from the ranks of Tejgaon’s local units.
