    At the outset, the pic used on the page (air_indiya.jpg) is NOT from Aero India 2009. Because of a recent crash of a Surya-Kiran acrobatic team air-craft this Jan 22, only 6 BJTs participated this year (And NOT 9 as shown in the pic).

    Secondly, I was fortunate enough to witness the Aero-India 2009 myself, and to capture the beautiful fighter jets in my DSC H50 right from the runways. Is there any way I can share the snaps here? Let me know on my e-mail pls.

    Regards,
    Sharad.
