Yeah it's a good trade show and lots of heavy focus on defence stuff. As far as actual airshow, you get good displays but they aren't as frequent or as varied as Avalon. Essentially because it happens next to Changi!

The static display 2 years ago was well worth it. B787-8 was great. Maybe the A350 & B787-9 may make an appearance ?

Thanks Radi, yes the A350 will be there but only on the 11-12 Feb (Airbus News). Trying to work out about going on a trade day or the public days.

I'm in Singapore for the show and looking forward to it.
Would love to go on a trade day, but it looks like I can only go on the weekend public days.
