The Knights' shining aircraft in white and red, which was to land here a week ago for rehearsals and participation in the trade fair, were stranded in Kyrgyztan due to bad weather and a snag in one of their aero engines after they flew into India this week for clearance and check-up at IAF's Hindon air base near Delhi.
The team, however, performed thrilling aerobatics for about 25 minutes instead of its standard breathtaking 40-minute show.
"We hope we will be able to delight the people with our daring maneuvers in a clear sky at air display," Russian Knights commander Lt Col. Andrei Alekseev told IANS after the flight.
