The annual Dubai Airshow kicked off yesterday, and runs through November 16.
Sheikh Mo opened the event at Al Maktoum International Airport, noting that this year would be the show's largest exhibition since the event launched in 1989. "1,200 civil and military aviation companies, 260 official delegates and 72,000 aviation specialists attending," he continued."
From major deals concerned Emirates Airlines to fighter-jet displays, see what you missed from the first day--and make sure to head down to Al Maktoum International Airport before the 16!
