Welcome home 'Golden Arrows'. Blue skies always.

The jets will be part of the No. 17 Squadron of the Air Force, also known as the ''Golden Arrows'. After their landing, pilots led by Group Captain Harkirat Singh would meet the IAF chief to brief him about their flying and training experience in France. The formal induction ceremony of the aircraft would be held later.
