They are the birdwatchers. A special team of 17 men, the Bird Watcher Men, from the Indian Air Force, scan the skies all day long, through the five-day Aero India, to ensure there are no untoward incidents mid-air during the aerial display.
They belong to the behind-the-scenes team, busy on walkie-talkies, standing at strategic locations at the Yelahanka Air Base and Air Traffic Control of Yelahanka Air Force Station.
They are constantly scanning the skies, coordinating with and relaying information to the ATC team on the location of birds and other threats, if any. They play a crucial role in ATC giving clearance to aircraft to take off, manoeuvre and land safely.
