Bidar Airport, airport in India
Bidar Airport is a smaller aerodrome in the city of Bidar in Karnataka state and serves both civilian and military aircraft. The facility has two asphalt runways and a simple terminal building that provides basic services for passengers.
The airport began as a military base and has been operated by the Indian Air Force for many years. A civilian terminal was added between 2008 and 2009 to expand air travel options for local residents.
The airport takes its name from the city of Bidar, which has deep roots in the region. Local residents use the facility as a practical gateway to access the area's heritage sites and connect with other parts of India.
Getting to the airport from Bidar city center is straightforward and takes just a short drive along local roads. Taxis and local auto-rickshaws are readily available and offer affordable ways to reach the terminal.
The airport is home to the Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team of the Indian Air Force, which performs spectacular flying displays during special events. Visitors may sometimes witness trained pilots practicing their maneuvers over the grounds.
