Once, and for a very short time, it appears that the IAF had a 3 aircraft Mirage 2000 aerobatic team. I found this unique video that I shot in 2003 - and I am unable to find any other images or references to a 3 aircraft Mirage 2000 aerobatic team

Yesterday was the 16th anniversary of the brutal killing of sq leader Ajay Ahuja after he bailed out from his stricken MiG 21 in the Kargil war.

Here is my tribute to him and other heroes of that war

I was fortunate to have seen and videoed this superlative Su-30 MKI performance by Viktor Pugachev in Aero India 1998. That was the most breathtaking display I have seen, and the man kept the whole display below a low cloud cover. There was no YouTube in 1998 and by the time I got a YouTube account a decade later this video was "lost" in my archives. I found it today ..enjoy It has Pugachev's signature "Cobra" manoeuvre
