It's all business at the aviation show this year

The third edition of India Aviation 2012, the premier civil aviation exhibition and conference that will be formally inaugurated by Union Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh at the Begumpet airport here on March 14, will not have the aerobatics, flypasts and other acrobatic manoeuvres that are regularly done by the Navy and Air Force personnel.
There would, however, be customer demonstrations by aircraft manufacturers who are expected to engage in negotiations at the 18 chalets provided at the venue.
Enthusiasts are also likely to be disappointed as the Boeing's Dreamliner will not be on display on March 17 and 18, the two days when the exhibition will be thrown open to the public. The Dreamliner will arrive at Begumpet on March 14 and leave once the business sessions are through.
The Sukhoi Superjet 100 and Phenom 300 & 100 business jets of Embraer along with helicopters of Eurocopter, Augusta Westland, Sikorsky and Bell will be on display. Replying to queries, Lt. Col. Kodikal said that Kingfisher will not participate in the event for “obvious reasons”.
