I have couple of pics - the problem is the static display was cluttered - so no clear lines can be seen - I am processing the statics after the flying displays.

After Jagan set up things for me - I have created a gallery in the Aero India 2011 section - and uploaded Tejas and Su30MKI pics in there.

I will be uploading more stuff there as I go along.

Njoy!!

Thanx much, folks. One can only go so far - there are always "workarounds"

Something is better than nothing

Keep browsing - since I will be putting more stuff as and when I get things out the door

I received a lot of email of similar nature - but - its just that in India - there is a lot of lift-and-grab done by some publications which rise from the woods during the time of Aero India. Its just to protect my stuff against these guys. I am moving my stuff to my regular smugmug site - where it ...

There are no flight controls in the rear cockpit of the SH - they have pure WSO function. Just talked to a couple of trainee WSOs at NAS Fallon couple of weeks back - they confirmed that the rear seat does not have flight controls.

Guys - slightly off topic here.

Needed help with the maneuvers which are performed in the Su-30MKI display routine? especially those performed at AI09.

I dont have a vdo cam to go thru the sequence again, and get it.

Much appreciated.

Best Regards;
Kedar
