During the British Raj, PAF Base Faisal was established in 1933 and was known as RAF Drigh Road. It was the first air force station in the Indian subcontinent and was the birthplace of the colonial-era Royal Indian Air Force, the PAFs parent force. The Royal Air Force mutiny of 1946 was a mutiny on dozens of Royal Air Force stations in the Indian Subcontinent in January 1946. The mutiny began at RAF Drigh Road, now known as PAF Base Faisal, and later spread to involve nearly 50,000 men over 60 RAF stations in British India and RAF bases as far as Singapore.[3]PAF Base Masroor is the other Pakistan Air Force base in Karachi. The new PAF Base Bholari near Karachi was inaugurated in January 2018.[4][5]It is currently the home of the PAF Air War College, preparing Pakistan Air Force junior officers who have already been marked for promotion for command and staff duties at the operational level. One of the facilities at PAF Base Faisal, the 102 Air Engineering depot, is responsible for the overhaul of turbojet engines for the PAFs fleet of Chengdu F-7. The F-7 is a type of Chinese interceptor aircraft. On 4 July 2003 a ceremony was held to celebrate the roll-out of the 10,000th turbojet engine to be overhauled at the facility.[6] The engine overhaul workshop was also upgraded to overhaul the newer WP-13F turbojet engines of the PAFs latest F-7 model, the F-7PG

PAF base Faisal is very unique base. It has some best things to do ( like it has Mc Donald inside base, here are some of the best tennis court as well as gymnasium I have ever seen, it also has one of the best hospital of karachi.) but it also has some drawbacks (like its market is not as good as it must be, its mess is not organized, etc).

Best for Kits. We are enjoying with family and friends with out problem but gift shop is good canteen need improvement in food service

Attend the 3 days Carnival from k5 promotion etc..... It is a complete family park with lots of fun for kids electronic rides and so many things like model planes for childrens.... Good place to spend your holiday with kids.Timings 9am to 9pmFriday 3pm to 9pm

A nice family amusement park placing old aircraft of PAF as model and fun for kids some shopping accessories but expensive as compare to the market. The air force history is well described by sketch and models there is also a beautiful banquet for holding wedding. The ticket applied from 3 years to above and its 60 rupee per visitor

Ready for paying thousands for this place

Not a very good place but if you belong to any of pak forces, it is important place for you. Personally I dont like this place.

Excellent place to be with family and kids, lush green grass, relaxing but food is not good :(

A great Pakistan air force base..

It was great time.But food quality was very bad, and much expensive.

Good military place to live in city like karachi, nice location and calm environment.

Very good environment inside,there used to be a hotel inside and they made the most awesome biryani back in 2009 when I was studying in Fazaia Degree College Faisal.

Good security system. No one can get in without identification. Passes are issued to visitors.

Good place for families specially with kids.

Excellent place .Visited .PAF Museum has no parallel...
