    Just check on India's modern airports in Bengaluru Chennai Mumbai and Delhi. on youtube. That's why we are in a hurry to sell everything to India. because we don't have the resources know how or the expertise. Also Air india will be flying high very soon with the delivery of 471 brand new aircrafts from Boeing..
