New Delhi / colombo (TIP): Indian Air Force planes flew over ‘Galle Face’ in Colombo Sri Lanka as part of display in the neighbouring country. An IAF contingent comprising Surya Kiran & Sarang aerobatic display teams, respectively, and the light combat aircraft — the Tejas — are part of the display teams as the Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) is celebrating its 70th anniversary. The IAF contingent arrived in Colombo on February 27. The flypast will be significant and reminiscent of the IAF’s Suryakiran Display Team performance at the Golden Jubilee celebrations of SLAF, two decades ago. The Tejas Trainer sent to Sri Lanka will afford the opportunity of independent sorties for the Sri Lanka Air Force pilots. During the deployment, the officers from the Sri Lanka Air Force and Sri Lanka Navy will also have first-hand experience onboard the Indian Navy’s Maritime Patrol Aircraft Dornier. TNS
