Coimbatore: Aeroplus 2014 is the destination to be if one has to see a Cessna or a Rolls Royce Avon engine or a MIG aircraft engine. It is also the place to be in to see helicopters – to look up in awe at the length of the rotors and click a ‘selfie’ in front of a helicopter of ones liking.
Organised by the Nehru College of Aeronautics and Applied Sciences, the exhibition is an opportunity for people to see and understand what aeronautical engineering is all about, in addition to looking at the flying machines at close quarters, says P. Krishnakumar, CEO and secretary, Nehru Group of Institutions.
The flying machines on display include ‘Grumman American’, ‘Bell 47 G5’, ‘Augusta 139’, Cessna 150D and a few others. There is also the eight-seater Hawker HS 125 1A.
In addition to the helicopters and small airplanes, the college had also thrown open its labs to the public and students of other institutions. In the labs, the students get to see the how the engines work, how its functioning is controlled, how the pilot gets to control the airflow into the engine to stay afloat and manoeuvre the aircraft and much more.
