A peacock rarely leaves viewers unaffected when it puts on the full show of its plumage. Exactly like the Indian Air Force's (IAF) helicopter display team, Sarang, which has left spectators gasping for more at the just-concluded International Aviation and Space Show at Zhukovsky, Russia. The IAF's 'peacock' -- Sarang is the Sanskrit word for India's national bird -- with its four modified Dhruv (Advanced Light Helicopters), captivated spectators from across the world at the biennial Russian aerospace industry event, better known as MAKS or Mezhdunarodnyj Aviatsionno-Kosmicheskij Salon. Being the only participating rotary-wing display team, the local media and guests simply couldn't stop raving about its synchronised aerial ballet. Sarang's four beautifully painted metal birds drew instant comparison with the graceful dance of the flamboyant pheasants.
