New Delhi: Fly past by the Indian Air Force planes and 'dare-devil' motorcycle performance by BSF men were the high points of the 65th Republic Day parade which left the people at Rajpath spellbound.
The grand finale of the parade was a spectacular flypast by IAF. The flypast commenced with 'chakra' formation, comprising three Mi-35 helicopters in 'vic' formation. It was followed by another 'vic' formation by three C-130J Super Hercules aircraft.
Trailing them was a 'globe' formation comprising one C-17 Globemaster flanked by two Su-30s fighter aircraft.
Then came five Jaguars flying in 'arrowhead' formation, another five Mig-29 air superiority fighters called 'tridents' flew in 'fulcrum' style.
The Mig-29s were followed by three Su-30 MKI which, while flying over the saluting base split the formation, making a 'trishul' in the sky.
The finale to the flypast was a 'vertical charlie' manoeuvre by a Su-30 MKI over the saluting base.
