Aerophilia - 2017, A snap shot on the Day One of the event

Sahyadri College of Engineering and Management has taken the initiative to widen the innovative prospects in the field of aeronautics. Aerophilia 2017, a national level AeroModelling competition organized by Team Challengers was scheduled to be held on the 27th and 28th of January, 2017. This is the second time Team Challengers is organizing such an event. Aerophilia was initiated in 2016. Though, in the beginning the team had less number of participants, the response that they received was way beyond their expectations. With this driving force, Aerophilia - 2017 was organized on a massive scale.

The inaugural ceremony was adorned with the presence of Chief Guest - Mr. J T Radhakrishna, Director, Mangalore International Airport along with eminent delegates from various disciplines - Prof. B.R Kulkarni (Flight lieutenant Professor who is currently working in Goa Engineering college), Mr. Rajanikanth Shashtri (A former Intel Manager graduated from IIT Bombay, working at Software solution provider for FAB Labs in USA), Prof. B.N Karkera (A scientist from BARC who is a director at KGRCS, Sahyadri), Mr. M R Vasudeva (A former director in Mangalore International Airport), Ms. Padmavathi (Scientist/Engineer at Aeronautical Development Agency, Bengaluru), Dr. M S Bhatt (Former distinguished scientist VSSE, ISRO and Adjunct faculty, NITK, Suratkal).

The inaugural ceremony was carried out by launching the aircraft giving throttle. During the inaugural address, Mr. J T Radhakrishna emphasized on the complexities in aeronautical field. This was followed by AeroModelling and Drone race which was a major part of the event. This competition comprised of 2 rounds wherein the first round was conducted today. The competition was evaluated on the basis of certain tasks that the participants had to successfully complete in order to qualify for the second round. By the end of the morning session, there were 11 participants who had competed in the first round of their initial attempt. In case of Drone race, 5 participants competed in their first round out of which 2 teams qualified for the second round. Mr. Naveil Rodrigues and Mr. Ragavendra kept the crowd engaged with their mesmerized talks and stunts. P.C Pant, Wing Commander of the Indian Air Force addressed the gathering wherein he enlightened the young minds with the opportunities in Aviation industry for engineers and spoke about different ways by which they can pursue their dreams and aspirations in aviation. Air-Show, the major highlight of the event was performed by Mr. Abdullah Ghasem Salehnezhad Moarafi, A UAE resident and an employee at Dubai customs along with Mr. Essa Saeed Essa Binaynouh, an employee of Dubai Police.

Staff Sports day organized by the Dept. of Physical Education

On the occasion of Republic Day Celebration in Sahyadri Campus, staff Sports Day was organized by the Dept. of Physical Education. Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff overwhelmingly participated in the various sports events and won several prizes which was distributed by Prof. Balakrishna, Vice-Principal.
