The five-day India Aviation show began here today.

The aviation industry, which is passing through a rough weather, hopes to see a revival this year.

The fourth edition of the show will discuss ways and means to enhancing connectivity.

Union Aviation Minister Ajit Singh formally inaugurated the show.

Video included: The Big Bird, Airbus 380, is being welcomed by thunderous applause and water cannons as it graciously approaches the crowd at the inaugural of the fourth edition of India Aviation show. The five-day show will be opened for the public on the last two days. The aircraft made a small sortie from the East to West before landing at the airport, which ceases to handle civilian aircraft. But they might miss the Emirates aircraft, which is pulled off from the lucrative sectors for the show.
