Public visitors to Singapore Airshow
2018 will contend with 30 min flying display
segment this year as the time has been cut
to half an hour from 40 min for each session
twice a day.
The organizer perceives that this is to
corroborate that fewer commercial flights
are affected, because the air space needs to
be closed during the flying display.

Other highlights at the show which will
run from Feb 6 to 11 - the last two days
being public days - include an opportunity
for visitors to fly on a Super Puma military

advanced avionics in fighter cockpits, tour
the lavish cabins of luxury jets and get inside
the holds of transport giants.
