Bagram Air Base is located near Charikar in Parvan, Afghanistan. Its 10,000 foot runway was built in 1976. It was extensively used by Soviet aircraft during the Soviet war in Afghanistan from 1980-1989. It is now home to much of the airpower of the United States and its allies which is based in Afghanistan

Kam Air Flight 904 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (555 words)
Bagram has become a US airbase and is the closest airport to Kabul where 904 could divert to land safely.
One theory is that the plane ran out of fuel after being turned away by US troops occupying the Bagram Airbase.
This claim of landing clearance being denied by US air traffic control at Bagram was first published in the Pakistani print and Internet news and in an international shortwave broadcast interview on Radio Tehran.
