 :: This year's special attraction - SkyDiving Display at Alleppey by Air Devils


"AIR DEVILS" is the best known parachuting sport team of our country. The "Air Devils" of Indian Air Force will be performing over the backwaters of Kerala in Alappuzha in connection with the 53rd Nehru Trophy Boat Race. Skydivers will jump from an Air Force MI-8 Helicopter at 6000 ft above ground level, fall free, open the parachutes at a pre-designed height, fly over the backwaters and land on water. This would be the first ever sky Diving demonstration with water landing.

"Air Devils" from its inception in 1989 has come a long way in terms of its capabilities and professionalism. Team is led by Wg Cdr Jayshankar, who is a Keralite. "Air Devils" has enthralled crowds all over the country besides having the rare distinction of having jumped in almost all the IAF bases in the country.

This display is dedicated to motivate the youth of Kerala and to create adventure awareness in the state.
