History:- Construction of the airport began in 1941. In 1943, a light warplane landed at Tejgaon Airport under construction. The airport was built by the then British rulers during World War II for air warfare. After the end of World War II in 1945, it was introduced as a civil aviation port. Until the opening of the present Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in 1981, it was used as the main airport of the country. After the opening of the new airport in 1981, the Bangladesh Air Force took over the management of Tejgaon Airport. In August 1986, HM Ershad decided to abandon the Tejgaon airport. Current status:- Although Tejgaon Airport is still officially recognized as an airport, it is used for air force helicopter takeoffs. It is also used by a couple of private aircraft training companies. At present, Tejgaon Airport is part of the Bangladesh Air Force's Bashar base.

Old airport of Bangladesh. Now this airport used by Bangladesh Army and Bangladesh Air Force.
Tejgaon Airport (ICAO: VGTJ) in Dhaka, Bangladesh served as the country's sole international airport prior to the construction of Shahjalal International Airport. The British had built military airstrips at Tejgaon, Dhaka during the Second World War for operating warplanes towards the Battle of Kohima and other Burmese war threats. After Independence in 1947, Tejgaon Airport became the first airport to operate civil aviation in then-East Pakistan and it was also a station of the Pakistan Air Force. A number of other British-built military airstrips in Bangladeshi territory were also converted into civil airports – some during the East Pakistan period and some after Liberation. A few others were converted to STOL (Short Take-off and Landing) ports some years ago. And some are still left alone. The airstrips not yet converted to any civil airport of any kind are at Feni, Rajendrapur, Pahar Kanchanpur, Chakaria and Rasulpur. Soon after the Second World War broke out, the British authority felt the need to build Royal Indian Air Force (RIAF) stations in Dhaka and other vulnerable places in Bangladeshi territory. The construction of Tejgaon Airport at a place named Dainodda started in 1941; and the building of a landing strip at Kurmitola (Balurghat) started at about the same time. The airstrips at Tejgaon and Kurmitola had military fighter plane landing facilities and the British Royal Air Force used the airstrips for maintenance and storage of their aircraft. There was also a United States Air Force detachment here during the war. The first RIAF light fighter landed on the under construction runway of Tejgaon at the beginning of 1943 and after development of the airport facilities, it became the first civil airport of Bangladesh. Today it is a part of BAF (Bangladesh Air Force) Base Bashar.
This is the only military flying airfield in Bangladesh now.
Firstly used as royal air Force Base , during second world war. Pakistan ruling period & after independence of Bangladesh used as an international airport. Now Bangladesh air Force used it as Base. It's have ability to use as light aircraft operation. Now totally prohibited for civil operation.
