Hello y'all, So I've been planning to go for MGM later next week, and since due to the heat wave, will the crowd during this time be less, or should I splurge more on the fast track lane, so I can avoid the heat and the crowd as a whole?
Reg tix cost 999
fast track costs around 1.5k
Just noticed that Wings India was a flair in here, and wanted to share my thoughts on it.
Pros :
So as an Avgeek, who has passed school, I had finally convinced my mum to take me for my first ever aviation expo, and it was a blast.
Coming all the way from chennai, we had to take the train due to budget issues but I didn't mind, because let me tell you, the weather in HYD is more damn pleasant than in MAA.
I went on the last 2 days unfortunately, so I missed the 787, and a bunch of other aircrafts, but that's fine, I got to see SKAT in action, and one of their pilots gave me a free bookmark, since I had taken a picture of SKAT flying over the Marina Beach in Chennai when they had come!
Nonetheless, it was a pleasant experience, making a lot of similar avgeek friends, and ofcourse I loved the expo thing, where I saw how ATCs work, and the various indian airlines stall, I GOT AN AIR INDIA CAP TOO FOR FREE!; and I finally went onto an International seat for the first time with Etihad, ahaha!
Since it's a paid event, obviously people would be more civil, but at the closing day, in front of the parking lot, I saw a bunch of ppl fighting, but then police had somehow resolved it!
Alright, moving on to the cons.
Number 1, I had spent like 4.5k, FOR THE BUSINESS VISITOR PART, SURE TO ENTER FOR ALL 4 DAYS, AND TO ENTER THE DAMN AIRSIDE TOO, but the mistake I made was booking via bookmysh*w, which was shocking as I discovered that I needed to have a business visitor lanyard to even visit.
I was disappointed, as my rights were literally the same with as the General visitor.
Number 2 : SKAT only comes in the morning slot, and not the evening slot, which actually dissapointed a bunch of people I met, who reserved a evening slot.
Number 3 : Never visiting wings india ever again, because I had asked the wings india how do I officially get the business card lanyards, to which he replied, I DON'T KNOW?!
Like dude, I WAS WILLING TO SHELL EVEN MORE MONEY, JUST SO THAT I CAN BE NEAR THE AIRCRAFTS AND HAVE A CLOSER OBSERVATION OF THEM WHILE LEARNING MORE ABOUT THEIR FEATURES INSTEAD OF WATCHING IT LIKE 300 METERS AWAY WITH A BLACK FENCE AND A CROWD BLOCKING MY VIEW.
I'm only going to go for Aero India next year, and I'm not looking forwards for Wings India '28.
[If I bychance do, I will definetly check out this subreddit, since many ppl were looking for company in here.]
I've only attached Global stars below, since it was my first time seeing them, and I found it funny that the Indian Tricolour was being displayed by a British team, haha!
Sup, so I sold my PS4 console recently, and I have my cds and controller left with me, so if you're interested you can get it from me, or I can do a F2F meeting.
I'm from chennai btw.
Total cost : 1.6K
3x first copy Controllers available, 2 are broken btw can do all three for 700
all are negotiable, btw.
YALL I'VE FINALLY ACQUIRED A SERIES X!
so uh after being a 360 player till 2021, got the PS4 after, which i found hella boring and small and sluggish, I'VE FINALLY ACQUIRED THE SERIES X.
360 broke, hence the switch to PS4. I really wanted to play the outfit, but couldnt find the CD for it, but decided to pry the 360 cd off, to find the gears of war 2 metal disk edition!!
xbox series x is currently downloading some stuff to make it compatible and stuff,
I CAN'T WAIT AAAAAA!
Also, do suggest some free offline series x games i can play with :p
So hi gamers, I'm getting a xbox series x from fb marketplace for 40k, and yeah, the seller ain't gonna lowball it, cuz gameloot also is selling for the same price so FAH.
anyways, before i spend money on them, what do i do to check about the series x before getting it?
