Jai Hind! This is the stoyr of AVM Suryakant Chafekar who was the first pilot to land in DBO Airfield for the first time in an AN 32 Transport Aircraft. This was a historic landing of any fixed wing aircraft in 40 + years. This is the worlds highest airfield AT 16700 ft in altitude and under 10 kms from the line of actual control.
This airfield is strategically very important as it serves as a way of ingress for troops and materials required for the maintenance of that outpost. This airfield has shown its importance in 2020 in the India China stand off and was used extensively for resupply of men and equipment.
