Mysuru: A special air display by an Indian Air Force (IAF) team captivated the crowd at Bannimantap Torchlight Parade Grounds this morning. It was a clear sky though it rained last evening and the 35,000-strong crowd cheered the IAF teams as they performed breath-taking manoeuvres in the air and on the ground.
The crowd had gathered as early as 9.30 am and due to technical glitches, the show began at 12.20 pm. The performance was for one hour and first it was the MI-17 Helicopter dropping millions of flower petals on the cheering crowd. The chopper was steered by Wing Commander Baliga and Srikumar. The other feats included slithering operation and sky diving.
