EASTERN AIR COMMAND The threat perception arising due to the Chinese occupation of Tibet necessitated the formation of a Command that could effectively oversee the operations of the IAF in the eastern region of the country. With this primary aim, the No 1 Operational Group was upgraded to Eastern Air Command on December 1, 1959 at Calcutta. During the Indo-China conflict of 1962, practical experience highlighted the difficulty of Kolkata being the location of Eastern Air Command. In order to have more effective operational control over the region of the north-east, the Command Headquarters was shifted to Shillong on June 10, 1963. Initially, HQ Eastern Air command was housed in the old buildings located at Nonglyer village at upper Shillong. As the legend goes, the Nonglyer Village, location of HQ Eastern Air Command, was once inhabited by the Khasi clan of Meghalaya. During the Second World War, this was taken over by the Bristishers to develop a military base.

WESTERN AIR COMMAND The origin of the Western Air Command can be traced back to the nascent years of independent India, when the various formations of the Air Force were organised into two groups. These were the No 1 Operational Group which controlled all the flying units including the flying training units and the No2 Training Group responsible for the entire spectrum of training activities except flying training in the IAF. On July 22, 1949 the No 1 Operational Group was re-designated as the Operational Command. The Air Officer Commanding the Operational Command was then of the rank of an Air Commodore. This was upgraded to the rank of Air Vice Marshal in 1958 and later to the rank of Air Marshal. The Command assumed its present name of Headquarters Western Air Command on June 10, 1963, primarily as a consequence of formation of other operational commands and demarcation of specific areas of responsibility. Headquarters Western Air Command, located at Subroto Par
