SP's AirBuz

SP's AirBuz is an exclusive magazine on civil aviation from India that has been launched by Mr Ashok Chawla, Secretary - Ministry of Civil Aviation in April, 2008. The magazine started as bimonthly will endeavour to cover various aspects of the civil aviation industry.

It is therefore a unique vehicle - which never existed in India before - to convey the concerns, ambitions, achievements and anticipations of its key drivers and architects. SP Guide Publications known for filling the gaps in the industry, since 1964, decided to offer yet another initiative through the launch of this magazine.

SP's AirBuz is the ideal platform to showcase and broadcast the twists and turns that will shape the civil aviation industry and ultimately determine the tenor of its success story. It will every alternate month bring to you a swath of holistic, incisive and in-depth news, views and interviews from the industry.

SP's AirBuz does offer a unique vehicle to showcase the phenomenal growth of the civil aviation industry and the host of roles of OEMs involved in the industry from different parts of the world.
