Singapore Airshow 2012

ABBEY: We got the ticket weeks before the event; 20sgd per person including 2-way shuttle service. The exhibition was conducted at Changi Exhibition Centre. We arrived at the venue 9:30 am, had our seat at the grandstand and wait for the 11am  air display. The participating countries were America, Malaysia, and of course the host, Singapore. 

It was a great show; a first time for me. Sound of sonic boom sends chills on me. Applause were heard for every maneuver especially for the complex ones. A number of planes were also in static display including Singapore Airlines' Boeing 747. It is to retire and they conducted free guided tour. We didn't got the chance to see it as all time slots were fully booked. Instead we got giveaways like postcards, card sticker and fan. A couple of snaps on the exhibit and then we headed home.














WILL: As the day approaches us, we are getting more and more excited but a bit weary for the weather that we will face during the AirShow. We rather sun bathe than all soaked up due to rain.
         
Lucky, not that much rays from the sun that beautiful Sunday morning. We arrived at Changi Terminal 3 around 9am and went our way to board on the free shuttle bus for every ticket availed.
        
The Airshow start 11am and lasts not more than an hour. Here we saw how the mechanical birds flew across the sky. Shocks, why I don't realize on my childhood days to be a pilot? Hmmm?.. Well, I wish one of my nephew will be one of those people commanding a plane.
        
We saw also some of the private planes. There are some people who are really rich affording those stuffs. Hehe. So that's all for now. See you Singapore Air Show again on 2014 of February.
