This Rafale belongs to Escadron de Transformation Rafale ETR 3/4 "Aquitaine", wearing the "Diable rouge" emblem of long-standing SPA 160 on the port tail and the combined emblems of an owl of EC 4B3 "Hibou" and "Bison" of GB 1/25(2) on the starboard side. The three wings date back to 1917, 1933 and 1936 respectively. The squadron is an OCU for the Rafale, based at BA113 Saint-Dizier.

"So goodbye my friend, I know I'll never see you again..." The lyrics were apt as I took one last look at an Air India B747 cockpit after the final flight of "Agra" from DEL-BOM. Several aviation enthusiasts converged last-minute at Delhi to brave Covid and travel, sharing their memories with the visibly nostalgic crew. My long association with the Maharaja's Queens started aboard AI's first B747 "Emperor Ashoka" in 1971 and continued to the end, marking 50 unique years of travel on these fabulous jets.

Final touchdown of an Air India B747 at Kolkata as "Agra" arrives on Rwy 19L at NSCBIA for the last time. There were AI B747 services out of Calcutta to Tokyo and to Europe and the USA in 1980, so the association with the airport has been for more than four decades.

Displaying during the full dress rehearsal for the 89th Air Force Day, this Harvard of Heritage Flight IAF stands out in its striking colors. This was RAF FS787 that was shipped as new to India in 1943. It went to the RIAF in Sept. 1947 and continued to fly till 1989. Thereafter, it went to the UK for restoration by Reflight Airworks and came back to India inside an IAF C-17 in July 2014. Harvards not only equipped Training Command's No. 1 and No. 2 Air Force Academy but also took part in conflicts.

"Agra" as AI401 from DEL on short final for NSCBIA on a winter morning as she approaches with gear down and full flaps set at 30 degrees, doing between 140-150 knots. This was the last week of the Queen operating to Kolkata, though nobody really knew at the time how long 747 the service would continue to the city.

"Flying Frigate" making up part of the naval aviation flypast for review by Smt. Pratibha Devi Singh Patil, President of India and Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces during President's Fleet Review 2011. Based on Sea King HAS Mk.5, these helicopters have been a force multiplier aboard Godavari-class frigates, Delhi-class destroyers and carriers. Along with ASW, 42Bs can perform ship strike with the Sea Eagle ASM. The Sea Kings are operated by INAS 330 "Harpoons" and INAS 336 "Flaming Arrows".
