It was very exciting when the announcement of the Air Show in Chennai comes. Was planning to attend this show, the second one after 4 years. But to destroy my plan the arrangement news in papers said the vehicles must be stopped near Ayappan temple that was 4 or 5km away from Marina beach, and people have to walk from there. Last time they allowed vehicles to park in Marina beach, so we got a good sight of the daring show, between over half million people. That was a forgettable experience seeing different scenes of families sitting around, some having foods and kids with binocular and shouting, enjoying by seeing the horrification of the flights adventure.
Even though I can’t tell that I missed the show. I must be thanking my uncle for taking me near to the Adyar broken bridge to watch the show. Some days back only I saw some beautiful pics of the broken bridge and the evening sunsets in the backwater, but the chance got me soon. One of the top10 Air shows team in the world the Suriyakeran presented the daring show that was awesome. Drawing our Indian flag on the blue sky with releasing colorful smokes, teamed with nine flights creating the rising sun, the lovely heart symbol and the small helicopters where the attractive ones that brought a horrification daring. This year it gives little disappoint. The time and the flights involvement were decrease; I was expecting new more modern flights. From our place the parachutes were looked like small birds, these are the movements that we can see them alive. I have a wish to see the broken bridge place; it was a nice place to see little birds were flying with groups. Must give a look to this place again with camera.

Air shows will show how powerful we are ! At the same time they also show how 'powerless' we are in front of mother nature and her laws.
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to give it a glance ! I am sure there are many more to come in the future where you can get as close to the cockpit as possible
I watched this on TV and was lucky enough to spot Suriyakeran and the helicopters passing over our apartment complex.
ReplyDeleteThe template looks nice :)
