Record Number Of Visitors, Major Orders Announced During The
Week
Final numbers are in for the Dubai Air Show ... by all measures
a successful week which saw $63.3 billion worth of orders for
aircraft, maintenance services and flight training programs, and a
record number of visitors.
According to the show's organizers 56,548 people attended the
event, making the 12th edition of the Dubai Airshow the biggest as
well as the most colourful yet, as the halls, pavilions and chalets
displayed the colours of the UAE national flag in celebration of
the nation’s 40th anniversary coming up on December
2nd.
The theme of flight training which permeated this year’s
Dubai Airshow continued on the final day with the signing by
Fujairah Aviation Academy in the UAE with IATA, to develop the
facility as an IATA-approved training centre for high school
graduates. The UAE’s 40th anniversary celebrations at the
Dubai Airshow came to a climax as the country’s new aerobatic
display team – Al Fursan – opened the aerial display
with a fly-past with an Emirates Boeing 777 aircraft, proudly
trailing the colours of UAE national flag to the delight of the
crowd below.
Alison Weller, Managing Director of airshow organizer F&E
Aerospace, said: “We promised a Dubai Airshow that would be
bigger and better than ever and we did not disappoint. The ... week
has been notable for its buoyant crowds, spectacular aerial
displays and astonishing order announcements. As the show comes to
an end, it will be time to take stock of the successes and the
challenges, in preparation for Dubai Airshow 2013 at Dubai World
Central!”
The Dubai Airshow is organized under the patronage of HH Sheikh
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister
of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, and in co-operation with Dubai Civil
Aviation Authority, Dubai Airports and the UAE Armed Forces.
