Most Bizplane Builders Give Aero India 2015 a Miss
Dassault and Sukhoi had the only business jets on display at Aero India in Bangalore.

Business aircraft manufacturers are noticeable by their absence from this week’s Aero India show in Bangalore. Dassault is the notable exception since it is exhibiting its Falcon 7X and Falcon 2000LXS models, but Gulfstream and Bombardier gave the biennial show a complete miss this year. Textron showed only a special-missions version of its King Air 350 twin turboprop and Embraer displayed an ERJ-145 equipped for military surveillance roles. Russia’s Sukhoi was present, and it showed a VIP-configured example of its Superjet 100 twinjet.
