The event will showcase everything about India, from its pilots’ never-say-die spirit to its engineers’ limitless imagination. And, of course, there was no shortage of humour either.

First up, In the airshow 2021, there was the “air traffic control tower”, manned by a group of unassuming traffic police. They were trying their best to manage the flow of aircraft, but it quickly became apparent that they needed to be in-depth. The result was a hilarious (and slightly chaotic) display of air traffic management as planes dodged each other in a frantic attempt to land.

Of course, the highlight of the airshow Bangalore 2021 t was the incredible flying machines on display. There was something for everyone, from the sleek and aerodynamic fighter jets to the lumbering but magnificent transport planes. Besides, the skilled pilots put on an awe-inspiring display of aerial acrobatics, looping, diving, and flipping through the air with grace and precision.

Overall, the airshow Bangalore 2021 was an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, excitement, and awe-inspiring aviation feats. If you missed airshow Bangalore 2021, mark your calendar for this year’s event –airshow Bangalore 2023. You won’t want to miss it!
