Aero India 2019

This blog contains 20 photos shot in Bengaluru, during the 12th edition of Aero India, an air show and aviation exhibition organised every 2 years.

65% of India's aviation manufacturing is based in Bengaluru. That is why Aero India, since its inception in 1996, has always been held at Yelahanka Air Force Station in the city.

Location : Bengaluru Urban District, Karnataka.

Photos shot in February 2019.
